From a game standpoint, the Panthers are still in it. There has been some pretty good team ball on offense, but still way too many open shots on defense. You expect some of this from Wright State, but 13 of 23 from the field and 5 of 6 from 3 is ridiculous. A halfway decent defensive effort in the second half should get us a W!

What do you know? A drive to the basket. Worth two free throws. The first time the refs called it for us. WS could club our guys driving and not call it until just now. You make your own luck with the refs. 1 team drives to the hoop out of control with zero plan on what to do while the other throws the ball into the post and drives to the hoop and plays off 2 feet under control with a plan.

BJ came walking out still in uniform. Trying to loosen his back up on the court.
Update: he's taking shots

Ouch. Well. At least maybe this means Freeman will be back next season.
Back injuries do suck. You have stretches where you don't think you will ever be able to do X ever again and then (usually months later) you regain your strength and can move around and run and jump around again. I'm sure it affects everyone differently but this is my experience for the past 12 years living with a slipped disc.
Fwiw I got a transforaminal injection about a year ago because my back pain severely flared up and began interfering with my ability to work; I was able to move around normally almost immediately after I stood up and left that operation.
But I think whenever possible a long period of rest is the best way to treat and recover from any back injury.

Great to see B.J. out there shooting and making everything. Of course, running the floor & taking contact is something entirely different.

I’m sure playing at the end of the USM game didn’t help his back injury. He’s played well this half, and got us back into the game, but I want what’s best for him.

B.J.'s been wincing a bit. Let's see how this goes. In terms of his play, he looks GREAT!

THIS team is a joy to watch
PS: And Duff is our man in the post, I think (new AT, Ant Hill, Tiby-like dominant post man)
