Along with Landen and Frank as arguably our best starters today, we got some nice minutes out of the following:

* Svi: And how did we! The kid came in for 23 minutes and carried the team offensively with lights-out shooting. Plus decent D. What a great development to see--that is, his advancement of late. A huge "plus" heading toward the post-season!

* Diallo: Arguably his best contribution in conference play. In 13 minutes of sub-duty, he grabbed 6 rebounds, blocked 2 shots, got a steal, hit a nice turnaround, and overall just disrupted TT in the paint with his size and athleticism. VERY nice to see...

Jamari: Gave us some quality minutes. It only shows up as 3 points and a couple rebounds, but he played well and brought his usual energy.

Greene and Bragg were on the short end of the minutes stick today, but we know they can contribute at times. Let's hope this is a sign of things to come, in a consistent bench contributions way. (10-deep rotation, with Self able to pick and choose based on matchups and who is best executing across our starters and subs)
