NBDL daily developments

Published on January 25, 2005 under NBA G League (G League) News Release

TRIPLE-HEADER HAVEN: The Asheville Civic Center is becoming the place to be for basketball triple-headers. Riding the league's longest winning streak at four games and coming off the season's largest crowd at the ACC last Friday, the Asheville Altitude host a trio of games again tonight. The Christ School and Erwin High School junior varsities will tip off the action at 5 p.m. ET, followed by the varsity boy's game between the same schools. The Altitude hosts league-leading Columbus 30 minutes after the conclusion of the prep varsity game.

ROOM AT THE TOP? An Asheville victory tonight would pull the Altitude into a virtual deadlock with Columbus for the top spot in the league standings. Columbus would be just .015 percentage points in the lead should it lose its sixth straight game.

54 DAYS: Columbus has held the lead in the NBDL standings for the last 54 days. The last time anyone shared the top spot with the Dragons was on December 2, when both Columbus and Roanoke owned identical 3-1 records.

HELLO, MY NAME IS: The Roanoke Dazzle is hosting its annual "Meet the Team Party" tonight at the Roanoke Civic Center. Dazzle season ticket holders, along with their family and friends, will join the team, the coaching and front office staff and the Star City Squad in an event sponsored by Buffalo Wild Wings, Nextel and The Candy Shoppe. Fans will have dinner with the team, play on-court games, ask questions and get autographs from 6-8 p.m. ET
