Despite top scorer Gurley II, Tom's Team fall to Instant Kamara in 136.30-133.24 battle

Tom's Team had the highest scorer in the matchup with RB Todd Gurley II posting 32.3 points, the fourth-highest total in the league this week, but it wasn't enough to overcome Instant Kamara, who squeaked by for a 136.30-133.24 victory. Instant Kamara led 127.20-133.24 heading into the late afternoon slate on Sunday with one player left to play. They were fortunate to have the lead already, as T.J. Yeldon (9.1 points) didn't do much to pad their point total. Instant Kamara (2-0) will look to keep it rolling against Los's Legit Team, while Tom's Team (1-1) will face Packer backer in an effort to get back on track.
