Illinois Basketball: 3 observations from the Illini win over Lewis

The Orange and Blue went up against Lewis in an exhibition game. This was a great way to tune up the games of the players. The start of the game was a bit surprising, though. Illinois was down 21-9 over 10 minutes into the game. While I knew that wasn’t going to last, this team still looked terrible.

Illinois had so many turnovers to start the game. It was like every other possession was a turnover. This team just needed to shake some rust off, though. The starting lineup featured a three-guard backcourt of Ayo Dosunmu, Trent Frazier and Andres Feliz.
