Sioux Falls, S.D. (April 2, 2007) - The Sioux Falls Skyforce clinched a berth in the 2007 NBA Development League Championship presented by Delta Air Lines on Saturday night as they broke the D-League record for points in a game en route to a 145-122 victory over the Colorado 14ers in the regular season home finale.

Sioux Falls is currently in second place in the Eastern Division as they trail the rival Dakota Wizards by 0.5 game and lead the Forth Worth Flyers by 2.0 games as the 2006-07 regular season enters the final two weeks.

The sudden-death postseason format takes the top three finishers from each division, with the #2 and #3 seeds from each side playing to meet the top seeds. The winners of those second round games will meet in the title game, also a "one-and-done".

The actual game dates of playoff games are yet to be determined.

All five remaining games on Sioux Falls' schedule are on the road beginning with a showdown with the Western Division-leading Idaho Stampede on Tuesday, April 3. Sioux Falls also visits Arkansas (4/6), Dakota (4/7) and Fort Worth (4/13 & 4/14) to end the regular season.

Follow all the action on the road on 1140 AM KSOO or check out Courtside Live at www.nbadleague.com.

The Sioux Falls Skyforce's next game is on Tuesday, April 3, on the road against the Idaho Stampede. Tipoff is set for 8:00 p.m. CT at Qwest Arena. For information on season tickets for the 2007-08 season please call a Skyforce representative at (605) 332-0605.
