LDJ 61, Glasenglitter 55
LDJ scored six more points than Glasenglitter, earning themselves a Week Four victory according to the rules of RBA. It's LDJ's third win of the season, which places them in a five-way tie for first place just ahead of the season's midpoint.
LDJ came out scorching hot, nary missing a field goal attempt in the first half and staking themselves to a large lead. Many of their shots even counted for three points, on account of the locations from which said shots were released. That bump in scoring especially benefited Zach Moskow and Matt Warshay, who each shot 3-for-6 from long distance.
Glasenglitter righted the ship and came back to take a one-point lead for a minute or three, but with only five players available, they ultimately ran out of gas and ran out of luck. Worst of all, they ran out of time when the clock hit zeros, thereby concluding the contest. "That's basketball," said Ben Danitz as he pointed a finger at the court, helpfully providing valuable context to the action this reporter was tasked with describing.
LDJ will play Verstolo in their next match. Glasenglitter will play TurfTalentNFT.com in theirs. It's still early in the season, but both teams can earn themselves a spot in the playoffs with wins. On the other hand, they will both lock in postseason berths should they lose.

It was a battle of the Scheff family, as the Pets moved to three and one,
David Immerman and Jared Scheff had lots of fun.
Eighteen points each, as they let it fly,
Evan Ashley had 23 boards, which somehow wasn’t a league-high.
As for Turf, they’re still looking for their first win,
They fought hard, but are left wondering what could have been.
Scott Scheff had 13 points, to go along with six boards,
But it wasn’t enough, and to the next game they look towards.
The tale of this game will live on, so do not have a fright,
A Happy Chanukah to all, and to all a good night.

3G Capital 63, Accordion 52
A Sonnet of Victory (written by ChatGPT):
3G Capital, with skill and grace,
Took to the court, in an epic race,
Against Accordion, with fire in their face,
The game was fierce, with nought to replace.
Jacob GA, a shining star,
With 28 points, he did go far,
Leading his team, from near and afar,
Victory was his, with no bizarre.
Though Josh Wohl was not in sight,
3G Capital, with all their might,
Fought on, with all their might and might,
And in the end, they won the fight.
Accordion, though they did try,
With Yoshi Gadasi, Uri Pearl, and Tomer Langer, they did vie,
But in the end, they were denied,
As 3G Capital, with victory, did fly.
So let us sing the praises of 3G Capital,
For in this game, they were truly essential,
With skill and grace, they did prevail,
And in victory, their glory did unveil.
