TULSA, Oklahoma – On Wednesday night, the Tulsa 66ers won their 4th straight game as they crushed Ft. Wayne by 29 points. The Mad Ants had a chance to get some revenge on Friday night. But the 66ers made sure that didn’t happen.

Tulsa got off to a fast start, leading Ft. Wayne by 13 after the 1st quarter. The Mad Ants did fight back, and with 4 minutes left in the 4th, they actually tied the game. But, the 66ers would end the game on a 20-7 run. And they win their 5th straight game, beating Ft. Wayne 119-106.

Latavious Williams led the 66ers with 27 points, Jerome Dyson scored 25 points, and Elijah Millsap had 22 points in the win.

Tulsa is now 13-6 this year and they are still in first place by themselves in the West Conference. The team will be right back on the court on Saturday night when they hit the road to play at Texas.
