NASSAU, BAHAMAS – The Bahamas national team beat Belize last in CONCACAF round robin play. The team is now undefeated in the tournament with a 2 and 0 record.

Moving on to some NBA action,

Bahamians Klay Thompson and Deandre Ayton are on the brink of elimination from the NBA playoffs.

Deandre Ayton’s Phoenix Suns fell to 3-2 against the Denver Nuggets after a 118-102 loss last night.

Ayton had one of his better games in the series, going for 14 points and 9 rebounds. But, he struggled to contain Nuggets center Nikola Jokic who had a virtuoso performance with 29 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists.

The Suns face a potential elimination game on Thursday night.

Klay Thompson’s Golden State Warriors are also staring elimination in the face tonight in game 5 of their series against the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Warriors fell to 3-1 on Monday night after losing to the lakers 104-101. Klay scored just 9 points on 6 of 11 shooting.

We’ll see if they can extend the series or if they get sent home.
