Despite top scorer Burrow, Joe Brrr fall to CAVIAR CARTEL in 110.46-107.70 cliff-hanger

Joe Burrow had 32.5 points for Joe Brrr, the No. 1 total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to overcome CAVIAR CARTEL, who eked out a 110.46-107.70 victory. CAVIAR CARTEL led 109.66-107.70 heading into Monday night with one player left to play. They were fortunate to have the lead already, as Melvin Gordon III didn't do much to pad their point total.
