Quinndary Weatherspoon has 52 points in his last two games combined. Despite a wrist injury that, for about one week, appeared to have ended his season, the sophomore is averaging 19.1 points per game as his Mississippi State basketball team finished non-conference play with a blowout victory over UMKC last night.
Last night, that is, in a game where Weatherspoon dropped 25 points in only 25 minutes, drilled five three-pointers and shot 60 percent from the floor.
Weatherspoon is scoring in bunches, and yet, after the game, it was a single assist by his star guard that head coach Ben Howland was most anxious to discuss.
