COLLEGE PARK, Ga. –&nbsp;The College Park Skyhawks defeated the Long Island Nets, 135-93 at the Gateway Center Arena on Friday evening in front of a sell-out crowd.&nbsp;



College Park was led by second-year player A.J. Lawson, who poured in 24 points to go with nine rebounds. He shot 9-12 from the floor, including 4-6 from three-point range. He was one of eight Skyhawks players in double figures.&nbsp;&nbsp;

College Park won the second quarter as well, 29-24, to extend the lead to 69-40 at half. They were led by Brandon Williams’ 11 points in the half.&nbsp;



The Skyhawks then broke the franchise record that they set in the first quarter, with a 47-19 (+28) third quarter. The Skyhawks were just the second team in NBA G League history to have two quarters with at least a +24 margin in the same game, per Elias Sports.&nbsp;
