In their G-League debuts both Amari and Leaky played really well and were big parts in helping the Greensboro Swarm defeat the Raptors 905.

Amari Bailey in 29 minutes: 26/6/3/1/1 and +22 +/-. He shot 10-20 from the field, 0-2 from 3 and 4-4 on free throws. It should be noted that in situations where players are given two free throws in the NBA, players are instead given one free throw for two points in the G-League.

Leaky Black in 28 minutes: 12/11/8/2/0 without a single turnover and +24 +/-. He shot 4-6 from the field, did not attempt any 3’s and hit both of his free throws. His defense was excellent and he played a big part in Greensboro holding 905 to just 82 points.

Amari Bailey led the team (and the game) in scoring meanwhile Leaky Black led the team in rebounds, assists and steals. It should be noted that Greensboro have lost all of their 3 prior games this season and that this is their first game scoring more than 100 points.

I have always been on Amari Bailey and Leaky Black is already looking like a better defender than most players on the Hornets. Since neither of them will probably be getting any real meaningful minutes in the NBA this season it’s nice seeing them have such an excellent start to their G-League season.
