Atlantis entered the game looking to carry momentum from its recent road win, and the opening minutes showed a group ready to dictate pace. The Atlanteans shot with confidence early, building a 45-24 lead by halftime. Insaurralde set the tone with clean mid-range looks and strong finishes, and Ornie Brooks added timely scoring that kept Beacon from finding stability.
Beacon leaned on Tony Wade's shot-making and Ernesto Hichez's work on the glass, but Atlantis answered each run with controlled ball movement and calm half-court execution. Artem Sorokin added 17 points, spacing the floor and giving the Tridents another reliable option. Nikko Landon filled the stat sheet with rebounds, assists, and steady poise.
As the second half unfolded, Atlantis managed the game with maturity. Even when Beacon pushed with perimeter shooting, the Atlanteans stayed composed. Their 11 threes and 86 percent from the free-throw line sealed the outcome.
The 80 - 66 victory showed a team settling into its identity. With balanced scoring and disciplined decision-making, Atlantis continued to build strong momentum heading into its next stretch of games.
