The Broncos worked their way to an eight-point lead after the first eight minutes and dominated from there on out. The Cowboys attempted a comeback in the final period but failed to convert the points they needed to catch up.

As a team, the Broncos posted 34 rebounds, 15 assists, 12 steals, ad. Five blocks against a determined Cowboy team. They finished at 44 percent from the free-throw line hitting seven of 16, and Happy finished at 25 percent. A little bit of foul trouble put them in a tough spot.
