Been there, done that: Joe was destined for historic performance

FORT SMITH — FORT SMITH — Knocking down ten 3-pointers in a game is nothing new for Isaiah Joe.

Nearly two years before scorching Florida International for a career-high 34 points on 10/13 from 3-point range in a 121-89 win last Saturday, he did it at Fort Smith Northside in the Grizzlies’ 2017 conference opener at Little Rock Central.

Coincidentally, he scored 34 points on 13 attempts that night, too.

Joe’s coach at Northside, Eric Burnett, isn’t surprised by the freshman’s success and always had supreme confidence in his shooting ability dating as far back as his seventh grade year when Joe joined him for workouts at the high school.
