UConn in the NBA: Nov 24/25

[ToolzieFan]

Was surprised Portland let him back in the game after he exited

Agreed, I thought it was very questionable at the time. Hopefully it’s nothing major. He was starting to do so many good things.

Steph with 18 already a few minutes into the third against Utah.

Bucks now with their 5th win in a row with Ajx starting.

Kinda getting cooked by Keyonte George though…

One positive tonight....It was another excellent night for the Area 51 duo in San Antonio. Steph scored 23 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 block on a 45% field goal percentage night. Continuing to shine and force his way into the ROTY conversation.

How many baskets did he score on Castle, including straight up?

As important, spurs and bucks 9-0 in last nine and .500+ for season now with our guys starting. Winning will keep them starting. Really happy for Ajax.

Tyrese Martin having a career night and the 1st half isn’t quite over yet.

Tyrese Martin having a career night and the 1st half isn’t quite over yet.

17 points at half to lead the team, including being 5-6 from 3. I think he has a chance to earn himself major minutes on this Nets team as the season progresses

 

[caw]

21 entering the fourth, matching his total for Atlanta as a rookie. For the entire year.

Up to 27/3/2 with 8 minutes to go. 7/9 from three.

 

[caw]

30 spot, but just taken out with 3:50 to go in the fourth up 12.

EDIT: He came into the game with 33 NBA points and 5/18 from three. Left the game with 63 NBA points and 13/28 from three.

This is so awesome, I always loved Tyrese.

OKAY TYRESE!!! I can’t explain how happy it made me to see him flexing and screaming “AND1” again. With Cam Thomas injured for a few weeks, plenty of wing minutes available for him

Other NBA performances last night -

• Castle: 10 points, 7 assists, 4 rebounds, but 3-10 shooting (1-4 from three)
• Hawkins: 6 points and 3 rebounds on 2-9 (2-6 from three)
• Drummond: 6 points, 9 rebounds, 2 steals

G league -

• Bouknight: 5 points, 6 rebounds, 2-7 FG

Castle got cooked on defense for the 2nd game in a row. Knecht outplayed him for sure.

“Cooked” by who? Can’t mean Knecht, I don’t actually remember him scoring on him.. Anyways George scored a couple on him in the first leg of the back to back, but did most damage on others in his L. Castle’s not gonna pitch shut outs in the nba..

I watched 12-minute highlights on YouTube and Castle had one basket scored on him in that package - a little bit of a tough leaner in the paint from Reeves. He could have defended it a little better, but he got back in the play after being screened and made it a little bit of a tough 2.

Reeves seemed to be his primary assignment on most possessions, and he was 5-11 for 13 points, but most of his baskets in the highlights were with Castle out, including a buzzer beater at the half when Castle was sitting with three fouls.

The highlights are incomplete of course - he could have been burned on plays that ended in fouls. But there wasn’t a bad defensive play in there, and he made some good reads/passes at the other end (7 assists, 2 TO).

Busy day today

NBA - Hawkins, Tyrese, Clingan (if not still injured). Pacers and Grizzlies play too but not sure if Newton/Cam are with the NBA teams or G League teams right now

G League - Bouknight, Polley, Calcaterra

 

[3rdbass]

Always a favorite player when he was on those teams. He just need to have a more consistent outside shot to with being a top notch athlete. Great to see him succeed.

Clingan was announced to be out at least 2 weeks with his knee injury. Hopefully they're just being precautionary and it isn't anything that will linger.

Had a grade 1 mcl in july
Still not 100 pc
Hard to believe he will be back after two weeks of the great 2
I think 4 to 6 weeks is the minimum

Wow I gave up looking at Nets box scores bc he hadn’t been getting much PT
