Final Score and MVP Prediction
3 of 3
Baron Davis was one of the most underrated guards of his time, averaging 16.1 points per game and 7.2 assists across his career.
The two-time All-Star-turned-sports personality has not played in the NBA since 2012, though he will likely make a strong case for MVP given his shot-making and passing abilities.
Allisha Gray and Chris Brickley each have the ability to challenge Davis.
Gray has averaged 15 points per game in consecutive seasons, while Brickley has trained with some of the NBA's best—talented enough to walk on to Louisville University in 2008.
In the end, Team Bonds should be able to overpower Team Rice.
Game MVP: Baron Davis
Score: Team Bonds def. Team Rice, 74-67
