Long Island Nets, led by Kennedy Chandler, upset Delaware Blue Coats, 125-117
The Long Island Nets and Delaware Blue Coats, the Philadelphia 76ers G League affiliate, have a long history of rivalry. Last season, for example, the Blue Coats upset the Nets in the G League’s Eastern Conference Championship, ending an historic season for Long Island as well as a match-up in the Finals, which Delaware ultimately won.
The rivalry continues this season, even after the two teams’ stars wound up in the NBA over the course of the month. The Nets Jalen Wilson is with the big club on the West Coast road trip while David Duke Jr., who played for Long Island last season and Delaware this one, has just signed a two-way with the San Antonio Spurs.
So, it was another close game at the Chase Center in Wilmington Saturday night with the Nets triumphing, 125-117. Former Memphis Grizzlies point guard Kennedy Chandler leading the way with 25 points on 10-of-15 shooting (1-of-2 from deep) and eight assists. Chandler also anchored Brooklyn’s Summer League team. Keon Johnson, like Chandler a Tennessee product, finished with 22 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists along with two blocks in 34 minutes. After a slow start, the 6’5” two-way is averaging 15.5 points.
Over the last three games, he’s shooting 47.1% from beyond the arc, an area scouts have pinpointed as an area of improvement if he’s to return to the NBA. He’s played 77 NBA games with the Clippers and Blazers and is only 21.
Armoni Brooks, the two-way who had been with Brooklyn out west, had 22 points for Long Island in his return, 17 of them in a close third quarter. Brooks didn’t miss a shot in the game, going 5-of-5 from deep and 6-of-6 overall…
Noah Clowney also racked up a double-double in a 15-point, 11-board and three block performance, shooting 7-of-11 overall and making his only 3-point attempt…
The Nets other first round pick, Dariq Whitehead, continued on his minutes restriction. The 6’7” wing told our Jordan Greene last week that he’s still not 100% after two foot surgeries in the last 15 months.
So far, he hasn’t played more than 23 minutes yet this season and doesn’t play both ends of back-to-backs but his progress is notable. He finished with 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting (3-of-4 from three) in 21 minutes Saturday. Over his past four games, Whitehead has scored 50 points in 83 minutes, which works out to 21.7 points per 36 minutes. In those same four games, the Newark native has shot 8-of-15 from deep, a 53.3% pace. No word on when his restrictions will be lifted, but the Nets have been patient with the second youngest player in the NBA this season.
Darius Bazley the 6’9” big who the Brooklyn Nets signed and cut prior to the season was among the scoring leaders for the Blue Coats with 19 points. It was his first game after signing with the Blue Coats. Ricky Council IV, a Philly two-way, led Delaware with 32.
Long Island now moves on to the G League Showcase Cup in Orlando beginning his weekend. The tournament schedule has yet to be set.

Autumn’s newest tradition: The Delaware Fall Festival at Battery Park
The story behind the Kalmar Nyckel
Here’s the story behind the Kalmar Nyckel, the Swedish Mayflower of the Delaware Valley. 10/29/24
Sunday’s autumn weather was perfect for the inaugural Delaware Fall Festival.
The event took place at Battery Park in the historic Old New Castle area of New Castle, providing the ideal setting for a community gathering and a worthy cause.
The free event was organized to raise funds and awareness for the New Castle Outdoor Recreation Coalition’s planned expansion of the park’s playground. Phase 2 of the Battery Park Playground Project will feature a replica of the Kalmar Nyckel, the Swedish flagship that brought settlers who established the first permanent European settlement in the Delaware Valley in 1638.
The festival featured live entertainment, children’s activities, and various food vendors.
Renee Duval, a three-year resident of New Castle, attended the festival with her husband and two children. As regular visitors to Battery Park who often stroll the path near Deemers Beach, they were excited to explore the event after hearing about the food trucks, music, and vendors.
Among the vendors was Theresa Batts, owner of Batts Concessions from Hartford County, Maryland, who learned about the festival through social media. She said the timing was perfect. She and her husband prefer to sell on weekends, but it is very hard to find events on a Sunday. And this weekend, they were celebrating their business’s first anniversary. Batts Concessions offered an array of treats, including kettle corn, homemade peanut brittle, various nuts, and cotton candy. When asked how sales were going, Batts replied, “Fantastic. No complaints. We would definitely do it again next year.”
Delaware Fall Festival organizers hope to make this an annual tradition for the historic waterfront community.

AAA predicts heavy travel over Thanksgiving holiday
For many people, Thanksgiving means full stomachs, full hearts … and full roads.
According to AAA, travel over the Thanksgiving holiday is expected to set records. Jana Tidwell is with AAA.
“Nearly 217,000 Delawareans will travel 50 miles or more for the holiday,” she said. “That’s more than 20% of the population. Of those traveling in Delaware, more than 91% will travel by car.”
Tuesday and Wednesday are likely to be the worst travel days on the roads.
“The challenge with Tuesday and Wednesday is that holiday travelers will be mixing with commuters, especially in the late afternoon time,” Tidwell said.
Tidwell suggests traveling during off-peak times, like early in the mornings or after the evening rush hour. Whenever you travel, Tidwell says to be patient, follow the rules of the road, and avoid distractions like cell phones and eating behind the wheel.
AAA notes the window for holiday travel is longer this year, adding Tuesday before Thanksgiving and the Monday after to their definition of the holiday weekend. Tidwell says that’s because the advent of remote work and changes in school schedules have allowed for more flexibility in travel.
