Preview: Valley Suns at Sioux Falls Skyforce

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Interstat) — The Sioux Falls Skyforce, holding a firm position above .500, will host the struggling Valley Suns in a G League matchup at the Sanford Pentagon on Sunday, Feb. 22, 2026.

The teams met just two nights prior on Friday, Feb. 20, in a game whose result was not provided. Sunday’s contest offers a quick turnaround for adjustments.

Sioux Falls (20-17) enters with momentum from a 123-106 home victory over Rio Grande Valley on Thursday. Guard Josh Christopher erupted for 37 points, seven rebounds and six assists in that win, highlighting a recent surge. Over his last three games, Christopher has averaged 28.3 points, showcasing his role as the Skyforce’s primary offensive engine.

Valley (10-24) seeks consistency amid a difficult season. The Suns snapped a five-game skid with a 123-120 win over Salt Lake City on Feb. 12 but have not played since. Center C.J. Huntley was dominant in that victory, posting 22 points and 14 rebounds. He has recorded three double-doubles in his last seven outings, providing a reliable interior presence for Valley.

The season records indicate a stark contrast. Sioux Falls has been competitive, with a 3-3 record in its last six games, including an overtime loss. Valley has managed only two wins in its last ten contests, though both were narrow, recent home victories.

Player development and NBA affiliate assignments often influence G League contests, but the core matchup will feature Christopher’s high-scoring versatility against Huntley’s rebounding and interior defense for Valley.

Following this game, the Suns begin a five-game homestand on Wednesday. The Skyforce do not play at home again until March 7, beginning a four-game road trip on March 1.
