Both teams were looking for the series advantage in Game 5 on Sunday in Carolina. The game was close throughout the first half before Carolina opened up a lead in the third quarter, which they were able to carry to a 72-63 win. Alexis Hornbuckle led the way in the win, which was important with the visitors getting their usual big production from the import spots as Sasha Goodlett led all scorers. Morovis will now have to win the next game at home on Tuesday to extend their season and keep their championship hopes alive. Carolina will be looking to clinch a third straight title with one more win.
