FLAME IN THE LANE: Indications are that the Florida Flame is doing to some of its best work close to the basket. Coach Jeff Malone has his team leading the league in rebounding (49.3) and blocked shots (7.3)

COWBOY TOYS: The Fort Worth Flyers are joining forces with the City of Fort Worth's Cowboy Santas Toy Program to help provide Christmas gifts to thousands of children in Tarrant County, Texas.
