NEW YORK CITY — Geo Baker is here to stay.
The Rutgers freshman guard proved his 15-point performance against Indiana in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament was no fluke by following it up with the best night of his young career. Baker scored 25 points — a career-high against Big Ten opposition — on 10-for-20 shooting against No. 8 Purdue in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten Tournament.
He showed he’s not afraid of the spotlight as he embraced the biggest stage he’s ever played on.
