The Ups
John Collins Continues To Dominate. The sophomore sensation continued his awesome campaign, notching another double-double with 17 points (5-6 from the field, 7-10 from the line) and 12 boards. I never thought I’d say this coming into the year, but as much of a bedrock Devin Thomas was last season, JC has stepped in and stepped up, and our inside game hasn’t skipped a beat.
Perimeter Shooting Somewhat Back To Form. The Deacs went a solid 44% from deep, including a good 3-5 effort from sharpshooter Keyshawn Woods, 1-1 each for Konstantinos Mitoglou and Mitchell Wilbekin.
