Maryland men’s basketball forward Donta Scott smiled when asked if he could believe the performance he had just watched from his teammate Hakim Hart, who scored a career-high 32 points Friday afternoon against Saint Peter’s.
After all, it tied Melo Trimble’s 32 against Northwestern in 2017 for the highest-scoring output at Maryland since Diamond Stone had 39 in a 2015 win over Penn State. And it came from a player who scored just 28 total points last year as a freshman.
“I feel like any number of my guys can go out there and have a breakout game or crazy game,” the sophomore Scott said.
