It would normally be a game that the Miami Heat would like to forget. However for the Sioux Falls element involved, there was a silver lining.  Result of the Friday night game was a woeful second half performance in a Dallas 93-72 road win.

Expect more nights like this as the Skyforce imprint continues to grow in the NBA.  Nine Skyforce alumni are plying their trade in the Association.

Deadlines arrive in professional basketball and rosters up and down the chain will undergo multiple machinations over the next 60 days.  Expect the Sioux Falls Skyforce to roll with the modifications.

A fast start by the visitors was met with a rapid response as the Sioux Falls Skyforce dumped the Grand Rapids Drive 106-89 on Sunday at the Sanford Pentagon.

Grand Rapids fits the definition of a team on the rise by sustaining their win streak including a second straight over the Sioux Falls Skyforce 116-107 Saturday night at the DeltaPlex Arena.

In a rare in-season three game series, the Grand Rapids Drive takes game one 119-109 over Sioux Falls Skyforce on New Year’s Day at the DeltaPlex  Arena.

On December 13, the Most Outstanding Player of the 2014 Final Four NCAA was sent to the Sioux Falls Skyforce in the NBA Development League.  Seventeen days later, he returns for his second stint.

Different night with different players produces a different result as the Sioux Falls Skyforce rebounded from a tough loss on Friday to steamroll the Iowa Energy one night later 124-105.

Destiny will meet destiny when No. 7 Connecticut and No. 8 Kentucky take the court Monday night in Arlington, Texas for the national championship.
