“Man, what a game,” head coach Mark Price said. “I hate losing, but I couldn’t be more proud of my guys right now and the fight they’ve been giving.”
Curran Scott had another big night recording a career-high 30 points and shot 50 percent behind the arc. Joseph Uchebo tallied his third straight double-double with 14 points and 19 rebounds.
