Pansa throws it down! Magic Moment
Smith opened the scoring with a layup before 4 points from Harper and a triple by Jeremy Morgan gave Jerusalem a 2-9 lead. Harper added another 3 points to his tally and Tarik Phillip scored inside, stretching the margin to 4-16. Then, Khadeen Carrington took over with 4 points and a dish off the bench for a 9-24 cushion after 10 minutes.
Or Cornelius opened the second quarter with a long two-pointer before a triple from Harper gave the visitors a 20-point lead. Jean-Marc Pansa responded with a three-point play before a bucket by Salash and a Brandon Paul triple slashed the deficit to 18-29. Jefferson made 3 from the line to extend Bourg’s surge to 12-0, but Smith, Phillip and Gabriel Chachashvili scored inside to restore a 23-37 lead. A Hugo Benitez layup was followed by 8 points from Salash to bring Bourg within 33-41. Harper answered with a four-point play on the other end to make it 33-45 at halftime.
Buckets from Adrian Nelson and Joel Ayayi sandwiched a Carrington three before Smith and Kevin Kokila traded baskets in an exchange of blows that saw Jerusalem maintain a double-digit lead, 39-50. Jordan Usher opened his account from deep before going all the way to the rim to cut the difference to 46-55. Harper responded with one from downtown and Derek Ogbeide slammed it home. A Phillip triple allowed Jerusalem to pull away again, 47-63. Jefferson nailed a triple on the other end, but 4 points from Yovel Zoosman and 6 by Harper gave Jerusalem a 55-72 cushion heading into the closing quarter.
Smith netted back-to-back buckets, but Benitez responded with a three-point play. Yet, Carrington scored twice inside for a 58-80 lead midway through the fourth. Benitez tried to inspire a Bourg fightback, but Jerusalem would have none of it, running the clock down to seal the outcome.
