Durham with a double -5 point play in the first ten minutes.

Airball turnaround J leads to a 3.

Missed layup on the feed from Adams leads to a 3.
 
And Vital with the -5 point play. Missed layup leads to transition 3.
 
Finally some points at the rim by a big. We knocked their giant out of the game about an hour ago, and we can't seem to score around the hoop unless it's Jalen on a blow by...
 
Jalen could have at least 3 assists so far if his teammates weren't allergic to layups.

But honestly, his progression as a point guard this here has been astounding. It's a good sign for next year, when he'll have more experience and weapons around him.

I think Jalen being top 6 nationally in all of D1 in APG with this unreliable of an offensive supporting cast is one of the most impressive statistical standouts this season in CBB, but it will also attract NBA scouts like flies.

Kentan, meet Tacko.
 
Of course it hit the rim. They just stole away an easy layup...
 
Wish we had Facey next season

Mini test here.

See how team closes out the half.

They've built a 7 point lead with 8 minutes of good hoops.

The early season UConn team would squander this lead.
 
Not a fouls with the slap but his lower body impeded Purvis' shooting motion to the rim, foul almost every time.

You can never be too sure with these things, but I'm not too worried about Jalen leaving in such a guard-heavy draft. He seems exactly a year away from being NBA-ready, and I get the sense he'll be more willing to listen to Ollie's input than Hamilton was.

Rodney is the key for us to win the AAC tournament. Rod is playing like NBA Rod now. We have enough in Jalen, Rod, Amida, and Kentan to win the AAC.
 
Out-rebounded them 24-13. Had two turnovers (including Jalen's brainless cross-court pass with 3 seconds left) in the final 15 minutes.

When we're good, those are the reasons why. When we're bad, it's because we struggle on the boards and with valuing the ball.

Also, Rodney has turned into Wes Bialosuknia over the last 3 weeks, which is nice.
 
Rodney 5-7 from 3s 1st half, 17 pts overall.

He should never go inside the arc again.
 
I missed most of the first half. It was 22-22 with 3 minutes left. Now it's 35-23 at half. Wow!
