This is the finale of the Barney Rubble ’87 Fantasy Tournament. In last night’s game, Team Lappas finally won, defeating winless Team Severance. Barney provided this report from court side: "For Team Lappas, Bradley finished with 22pts/12 reb, Thomas had 17pts/10reb, and Kittles scored 15pts (4-6 from arc). For Team Severance, Paul Arizin had another strong game, scoring 20pts (5-9 from arc), Hennessy added 11pts and Schaeffer put in 10pts (7-10 FT). Raveling grabbed 9 rebounds but fouled out in an exhausting effort against a very tall front line for Team Lappas."
