Tony Mitchell

I was listening to the radio before the game. Tony had a great defensive tournament according to the assistant coach but was yet to have that great offensive game.

Akol and Faint from WKU are very good players and they played great in the championship.

He didn't play bad defense. The guy he was guarding is 6'11" with a high release on his shot. He was just shooting over Tony. It was actually pretty textbook. He didn't leave his feet much, which kept him out of foul trouble. The only place he struggled last night was in transition, and that's because he was exhausted because we don't have a deep bench. He wasn't the only one gassed either. Alzee missed a couple free throws because he was also tired. You could tell he was struggling for air at the line.
