AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 26, 2006 - Aloysius Anagonye scored 24 points and Brian Chase added 22 as the Los Angeles D-Fenders defeated the Austin Toros 103-87 on Tuesday night at the Austin Convention Center. With the loss, Austin has lost an NBA D-League record 12 games in a row and remains winless (0-12) on the season.

The D-Fenders blew the game open in the second quarter and kept the double-digit lead throughout the rest of the game. Los Angeles outscored the Toros 35-22 in the quarter and took a 65-47 advantage to the locker room at the half.

"We're getting out hustled and I'm really afraid that the team is trying to find excuses," Toros head coach Dennis Johnson said. "The bottom line is that winners find ways to win no matter what happens on the court."

Austin turned the ball over 31 times in the game compared to only 15 times by the D-Fenders. They were also out-rebounded by 40-36. Los Angeles improved to 9-5 on the season and pick up their fourth straight win.

Los Angeles had six players in double figures including Akin Akingbala (14), Chet Mason (12), Josh Gross (11) and T.J. Cummings with 10 points and nine rebounds.

B.J. Elder scored a team-high 20 points for the Toros and Jamar Smith had 18 and collected 10 rebounds. Jay Williams led the team with six assists.
