Green Bay Phoenix logo 2The Green Bay Phoenix saw their 5-game win streak come to an end on Thursday night, falling to the Oakland Golden Grizzlies 69-66 in overtime.

Senior Keifer Sykes led four Green Bay players in double figures with a team-high 19 points, but missed key moments due to foul trouble after two second-half charges.

Oakland (6-12, 2-2 HL) missed a shot with 14 seconds left, giving the Phoenix a chance to tie the game.  But Green Bay (14-4, 3-1) couldn’t answer when Sykes missed a potential game-tying three-pointer with five seconds left.

Greg Mays added 15 points, Carrington Love 12 and Jordan Fouse had 11 points, eight rebounds and three steals for the Phoenix.

Green Bay returns to action Saturday afternoon at Detroit.
