Awaka - future superstar

Did everyone just see that post move, rebound, and then another great post move and a tough hook shot? My favorite player on this team so far

I think Pac-Man is going to continue getting opportunities to earn more PT this season. It's just Vandy, but he's looking good against a solid opposing frontcourt.

Right now, it is only the defensive lapses keeping him from more PT. He's gotten lost on help defense a couple times in this one, but Barnes has stuck with him because of what he brings on the boards and in the paint on offense.

Yeah plus the freshman mistake of fouling a 3 point shooter there at the end. But those are things that he will get better at with experience and playing time

Yep, which he did because he was lost on defense and reacted late closing out on the shooter.

A foul shot or an opposing player?

He hits the opposing players on almost every play he is in the game.

He had a bad finish tonight. Gave up a 3-point play with the foul at critical mass. Went one on one with Liam 3 times in a row and came back with nothing, overmatched.
