It took one extra night, but the Sioux Falls Skyforce have claimed the NBA D-League Championship on their home court.

After a home loss Tuesday forced a third and deciding game in the final playoff series, the Skyforce put away the Los Angeles D-Fenders early in a 91-63 rout.

It was the first title for the Skyforce since they won the CBA crown in 2005. Both of their CBA titles had been won on the road.

D-League MVP Jarnell Stokes led the winners with 25 points and 12 rebounds.
