Frankie Policelli and league MVP Patrick Robinson gave Phoenix hope early in the third quarter, scoring 16 points between them, but repeated free-throw misses and a standout period for Kameron Mcgusty helped widen the gap to 20 points with the final quarter remaining.

As Phoenix pushed to close the gap in the final ten minutes, the error count increased, allowing Scott and Mcgusty to benefit on the fast break.

With a comfortable 25-point lead, the Lions slowed the pace of the game against a tiring Phoenix, who increasingly shot from distance.

With the clock winding down, Phoenix scored through Damiri Lindo and Skyler White, but they never looked like overhauling the Lions’ lead, and their players and fans celebrated jubilantly at the buzzer after completing the domestic quadruple.
