As the final buzzer sounded, the JDS Lions secured a decisive 74-48 victory. While Blumenthal’s 22 points were the highlight of the game, the win was a true team effort, showcasing JDS’s depth, adaptability, and cohesion.

With such a strong performance, the Lions have made a statement and established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in this tournament. Fans will be eager to see if they can maintain this momentum as they move on to their next challenge.
