A big congratulations to Kamaiu Ortiz, who scored at least ten points for the first time in his career. He posted 11 points, but sadly Palo Verde still had to take a 66-62 loss at the hands of Sabino. We marked that as the best effort he's had all season, even better than his performance on December 19th, 2024 (when he earned nine points) (Gamescore: 10.7 vs. 10.5).
Ortiz will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Sahuarita on Thursday. Sadly, Ortiz's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped Palo Verde's nine-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Ortiz and Palo Verde surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Thursday's match. Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other basketball content.
