GRAND RAPIDS, MI (March 5, 2026) – The Grand Rapids Gold (9-19) dropped the second half of a two-game series with the Capital City Go-Go (14-14) in a 120-126 loss Thursday night. Grand Rapids began the game firmly in the driver’s seat, which they carried into the third quarter, leading by as much as 11. A fourth-quarter altercation between Gold big man Moses Brown and Capital City’s Alondes Williams led to a double technical for Brown, which effectively disqualified him from the game. The Gold lead quickly disappeared after being out-rebounded by the Go-Go in the fourth quarter 19 to 6.
Capital City relied heavily on their starters in the win, boasting 34- and 32-point performances from Skal Labissiere and Alondes Williams, respectively. Kadary Richmond added a 22-point, 10-rebound, 10-assist triple-double in the effort.
Dane Goodwin led the way for the Gold with 35 points, nearly tying his career high of 36 set a few weeks prior. NBA Two-way guard Curtis Jones contributed 19 points and 6 assists of his own. Recent Two-way pickup K.J. Simpson II added 17 points off the bench in his first game with the Gold.
