Jan. 27-Feb. 2, 2020
2 feature games to cover, and we'll start in the Pac 10.
2/1/20-
Arizona State (Ivan Carrillo) @
Oregon (Path Twelve) -- The Sun Devils used 53.1% shooting and forced 16 turnovers as they raced to a 13 point halftime lead and won easily.
Final Score: Arizona State- 97, Oregon- 81
Ivan Carrillo (Arizona State)- started game, 18 mins played, 18 points, 7 rebounds.
Path Twelve (Oregon)- started game, 33 mins played, 13 points, 3 rebounds, 1 block.
Now to the SEC.
2/1/20-
Auburn (Randy Rodgers) @
Mississippi State (Tim Sheppard) -- The Tigers held a 53-37 rebound edge in this one, as they led by 14 at halftime and almost doubled that lead by the end of the game.
Final Score: Auburn- 108, Mississippi State- 83
Randy Rodgers (Auburn)- started game, 26 mins played, 11 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 1 steal.
Tim Sheppard (Mississippi State)- started game, 22 mins played, 8 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block, 1 steal.
Now to the rest of the weekly recap:
RS SR C Jace Hunter (#10 Xavier) -- 17-4, 4-2 Atlantic 10.
1/29/20 vs. Charlotte (W 89-54), started game, 32 mins played, 23 points, 16 rebounds, 1 assist, 10 blocks, (Triple-double), (POTG).
2/1/20 at Dayton (L 92-81), started game, 37 mins played, 21 points, 13 rebounds, 2 assists, 8 blocks, (Double-double), (POTG).
WOW! What a week for Jace, who becomes the first player in this dynasty to post a triple-double! Not to mention he got 2 POTG awards this week, 1 of those coming in a losing effort. His 10 blocks against Charlotte put him in 2nd place in the A-10 for blocks for a game. If you're wondering, the leader has 11, and this is throughout the course of the dynasty.
RS SR PG Randy Rodgers (Auburn) -- 14-6, 5-1 SEC.
1/28/20 vs. Kentucky (W 66-65), started game, 27 mins played, 15 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals.
2/1/20 at Mississippi State- feature game, highlighted above.
Solid week for Randy, who had a very balanced effort at Miss. St. Not quite as strong against Kentucky, but still a good week.
RS SR PF Ivan Carrillo (Arizona State) -- 10-9, 5-4 Pac 10.
1/30/20 at Oregon State (W 78-60), started game, 27 mins played, 13 points, 2 rebounds, 2 blocks.
2/1/20 at Oregon- feature game, highlighted above.
Ivan had a spectacular game at Oregon, didn't do quite as well at Oregon State. Would like to see more boards from him, but his scoring is definitely there now.
RS JR SF Chester Smith (#11 Maryland) -- 16-4, 4-2 ACC.
1/29/20 vs. Clemson (W 87-78), came off bench, 27 mins played, 2 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal.
2/1/20 at Virginia Tech (W 109-59), came off bench, 18 mins played, 15 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block.
We are seeing what Chester can do when given a chance to play. These 2 games are probably the best 2 games of his career. Unfortunately, he did sprain his ankle at Virginia Tech. He's day to day, so he may not have to miss any games, but there's a slight chance he doesn't play next week.
RS JR PG Al Mighty (Houston) -- 9-11, 3-3 Conference USA.
1/29/20 at Tulsa (W 67-61), started game, 33 mins played, 20 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, (POTG).
2/1/20 vs. UAB (L 91-77), started game, 24 mins played, 13 points, 1 rebound, 5 assists, 2 steals.
A little bit of foul trouble on the week for Al, as it really hampered his minutes against UAB. When he went out early in the 2nd half, UAB made their run and pulled away. Overall though, not a bad week.
RS JR SG Ricardo Tubbs (UNLV) -- 13-8, 2-5 Mountain West.
1/29/20 vs. San Diego State (L 66-64), started game, 32 mins played, 21 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, (Double-double).
2/1/20 at Utah (L 74-58), started game, 28 mins played, 12 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals.
A nice double-double for Ricardo against San Diego St., and not bad numbers overall for the week, but he could stand to score a little more.
JR C Rudy Arellano (Long Beach State) -- 3-17, 1-6 Big West.
1/28/20 vs. Cal State Fullerton (L 70-55), started game, 20 mins played, 19 points, 5 rebounds, 1 steal.
1/30/20 vs. UC Riverside (L 69-51), started game, 32 mins played, 13 points, 11 rebounds, (Double-double).
Rudy really is the only bright spot right now on a terrible Long Beach team. He can obviously score, as he averaged almost a point a minute vs. Fullerton, but got himself into foul trouble. They need him on the floor.
RS SO SF Jack Dawkins (#16 Syracuse) -- 16-4, 7-1 Big East.
1/29/20 vs. #24 Villanova (W 76-65), started game, 27 mins played, 14 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block.
2/1/20 at Rutgers (W 100-75), started game, 32 mins played, 9 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists.
A nice, balanced game for Jack at Rutgers, but there again, foul trouble got the better of him. He had 7 fouls in the 2 games.
RS SO C Ralph King (#4 Duke) -- 16-3, 3-3 ACC.
1/29/20 vs. #17 Virginia (W 81-64), started game, 29 mins played, 22 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal.
2/1/20 vs. Georgia Tech (L 111-107, OT), started game, 26 mins played, 10 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists.
Again, the key for Ralph is foul trouble. He's solid when he stays on the floor, but he still commits too many fouls. They really could have used more of him against Georgia Tech.
RS SO PG Benton Gale (High Point) -- 10-12, 7-4 Big South.
1/30/20 vs. Charleston Southern (W 92-76), came off bench, 9 mins played, 7 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists.
2/1/20 vs. Coastal Carolina (L 83-82), came off bench, 5 mins played, 2 points, 2 assists.
Benton made the most of his minutes against C. Southern, and even against Coastal Carolina, he did well getting his name in the stat book. I can see his junior season being a breakout season.
RS SO PF Bam Jamison (Grambling) -- 6-14, 5-4 SWAC.
1/30/20 at Arkansas-Pine Bluff (W 78-59), came off bench, 13 mins played, 4 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block, 1 steal.
2/1/20 at Mississippi Valley State (L 95-92), came off bench, 25 mins played, 16 points, 6 rebounds, 1 block, 1 steal, (Fouled Out).
A huge game for Bam off the bench against Miss. Valley, even though he did foul out. If he could contribute like that every single game, he might crack the starting lineup soon.
SO C Ariel Ginsberg (#19 Georgetown)- academic suspension -- 16-4, 4-4 Big East.
1/29/20 at Providence (L 62-50).
2/1/20 vs. St. John's (W 81-59).
SO SG Thomas Magnum (Marshall) -- 7-13, 4-2 Conference USA.
1/29/20 vs. UTEP (W 84-69), started game, 31 mins played, 7 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block.
2/1/20 vs. South Florida (W 63-56), started game, 32 mins played, 11 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist.
Thomas is really starting to crash the boards a little bit more, but his shooting percentage just isn't very good. Perhaps he could work on shooting a little more and rebounding a little less.
SO SG Qwikshot Collins (#8 Pittsburgh) -- 17-3, 6-2 Big East.
1/29/20 vs. Notre Dame (W 72-69), came off bench, 9 mins played, 2 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 steal.
2/1/20 at Marquette (W 107-92), came off bench, 12 mins played, 10 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.
Nice game off the bench at Marquette, as he is pretty consistent the last few weeks in averaging about 10 minutes a game.
SO SG Jaybard Riley (#1 Michigan State) -- 21-1, 8-1 Big 10.
1/29/20 vs. #7 Ohio State (W 79-56), started game, 33 mins played, 15 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal.
Solid game as always for Jaybard, as the Spartans just had the 1 game this week.
RS FR Mike Schaplowsky (Kansas State) -- 6-13, 2-4 Big 12.
2/1/20 vs. Texas A&M (W 68-61), came off bench, 1 min played.
1 game for the Wildcats this week, 1 unproductive minute for Mike.
RS FR PF Path Twelve (Oregon) -- 9-11, 4-5 Pac 10.
1/30/20 vs. Arizona (W 70-62), started game, 36 mins played, 11 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block.
2/1/20 vs. Arizona State- feature game, highlighted above.
Not a terrible week for Path, as he posted in double figures in both games this week for the Ducks.
FR SG Cameron Blodgett (#4 Duke) -- 16-3, 3-3 ACC.
1/29/20 vs. #17 Virginia (W 81-64), started game, 22 mins played, 7 points, 2 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal.
2/1/20 vs. Georgia Tech (111-107, OT), started game, 10 mins played, 2 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 steal.
Not a good week for Cameron, who battled foul trouble, having 4 in both games. His minutes were really, really limited, especially against GA Tech.
FR PG Jackson Pace (Purdue) -- 13-7, 5-4 Big 10.
1/31/20 at South Carolina State (W 73-64), came off bench, 22 mins played, 12 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist.
Not bad for Jackson in Purdue's only game of the week, as 9 of his 12 points came from behind the arc.
FR PF Jawouk Bafou (#19 Georgetown) -- 16-4, 4-4 Big East.
1/29/20 at Providence (L 62-50), came off bench, 24 mins played, 5 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist.
2/1/20 vs. St. John's (W 81-59), came off bench, 17 mins played, 6 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.
Gotta like Jawouk keeping a positive attitude after losing his starting spot. He's still getting good minutes, and he's doing a good job on the boards.
FR C Tim Sheppard (Mississippi State) -- 12-7, 2-4 SEC.
1/28/20 vs. #20 Ole Miss (L 80-45), started game, 11 mins played, 7 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.
2/1/20 vs. Auburn- feature game, highlighted above.
Again, foul trouble gets the best of 1 of our FOFC players, as he struggled with that this week and we really didn't get a chance to see him much at all against Ole Miss.
FR PF Erik Flamebeard (#15 UCLA)- redshirting -- 14-6, 7-2 Pac 10.
1/30/20 vs. Washington (L 72-70).
2/1/20 vs. Washington State (W 71-58).
