For the first time in the 2018-19 season, senior Devin Mitchell’s name was announced with the starters in front of a packed GSU Sports Arena Wednesday night. There was an extra buzz in the building when his name echoed over the speakers. The roar of the crowd layered on top of the thundering anthem that plays during the lineups was befitting of what it meant to have him back. But what happened in the closing minutes of the first half that night reminded everyone in the building of exactly what they had been missing.
Georgia State had just seen its 17-point lead cut to ten with four minutes left in the first half.
