Davion Bailey kept Bristol Flyers in it until the final buzzer. The guard posted 29 points from 11-of-20 shooting, including 5 three-pointers, while adding 5 assists and 2 steals across 34 minutes — yet Manchester Basketball escaped with a 78–74 win on the road at home. Bailey's efficiency from deep (5 of 10) steadied the hosts through stretches of uneven offensive rhythm, and his creation kept the ball moving when Bristol needed it most. Two free throws on a perfect record underlined clinical execution in the moments that mattered. Five turnovers and the missed opportunities elsewhere in the rotation, however, proved the difference in a margin that could have tilted either way. For Flyers, the loss stings as a chance gone. Bailey did everything a lead scorer could; the rest had to follow through. Manchester's away performance earned it, and Bristol will need to convert these half-chances into wins as the season deepens.
