UNT's Tony Mitchell box in FIBA U-19 Championships

The first USA game vs. Egypt is almost over. It appears that live stats are going to be available for all games. There are only 3 minutes left in this one, but here is the link: Live Stats

The USA is up 107-56. Tony Mitchell has 7 points and 9 rebounds right now.

Now showing Tony with 10 boards in just 13 minutes!!!

7 points, 4 blocks, 3 assists, 10 rebounds, and 0 turnovers in 12 1/2 minutes of play.

Nice.

Done.

Cooley's been talking about this kid's hustle, and it shows in the box score. He [PF] and Leonard [C] killed Egypt on the board, both with 10+ rebounds and 4 blocks each.

I'd like to see improvement on the offensive side: he had the poorest FG% of anyone with 5+ attempts. I trust that part of his game will come back to him as he gets more and more in-game experience this year.

Solid all around game

I love offensive rebounders. Hope he earned more minutes.

In the other Group A game today Serbia defeated the dirty commies from China 78-73.

Wow! Great job Tony!!

I'm calling all of my Egyptian friends right now. Egypt got schooled!

Stat stuffer performance.

So, I'm guessing the change in topic title means we want a different thread for each game?

I think that makes sense - it could tend to get confusing if we didn't.

Careful, some of our resident lefties my take offense.

Although Egypt is much weaker competition then the other countries the U.S. has played, it's nice to see Mitchell shacking off the rust. Can a player who only plays half a season be named the Sun Belt player of the Year?

When do season tickets for basketball go on sale?

Considering it is Sun Belt POTY and Mitchell will be eligible by Dec 17, thus competing in just about every conference game, yes.

POTY is maily focused on player performance inside conference play.
