In a recent game, Phelps couldn't help his team, the Zonkeys de Tijuana (20-20), secure a win as they suffered a close 107-112 defeat on the road against the lower-ranked (#5) Angeles. Despite the loss, Phelps delivered a stellar performance, showcasing his skills on the court. He emerged as the top scorer of the game, contributing 20 points along with 6 rebounds and 5 assists in just 31 minutes of play.
