The 60-foot shot by Nembhard was also launched with over 3 seconds left, so there was plenty of time to get a better shot. Gonzaga did draw up a great play down 63-60 with 13 seconds left, where Nembhard passed the ball to the front court, then immediately received the ball back and made a layup and got fouled with 8 seconds left. Unfortunately, he missed the and one to tie the game, which led to the desperation heave at the end of regulation. The announcers were also dumfounded by the shot from that distance with several seconds remaining and speculated that he must have been frazled by the missed game-tying free throw from moments earlier. Final plays are at the 2:30 mark of the highlights linked here: https://youtu.be/cAVcXIA5Tlk

I really enjoyed watching the bench players get some extended minutes today. I've been a Nessah fan since watching some of his games with the U-18 Swiss team over the summer and like that he's looked comfortable out on the court considering his limited minutes so far this season. On the defensive end his athleticism and length allow him to be a good help defender and he appears to have good instincts and regularly seems to get himself in good rebounding position. On the offensive end, aside from his 3-point shooting, he's kept several possesions alive crashing the boards and tipping balls awat from defenders, and his ability to put the ball on the floor and get by his defender will be needed needed while Jun is getting some rest. He also looks to have good hands and had been able to control some passes that have been slightly off target while cutting to the hoop. I'd love for us to have a 10-man rotation with Bevins and Nessah, with occasional full court pressure. They both also have decent rebounding rates, albeit in limited minutes, which is an area this team needs to improve on, especially on the defensive end.

Does anyone know if there's a block of tickets for the AU game available through the GW ticket office?  If I remember correctly, in the past there have been tickets behind the visitor's bench that could be purchased through the GW box office.

I'm try to temper my expectations, but after watching some older highlights and yesterday's game I'm getting excited to see Dayan i'm a Revs jersey. He looks to be very athletic and skilled.In the game against Poland he showed he could create offense for himself and his teammates off the dribble. Saw the court exceptionally well, and was a very willing passer. He some very nice passes after beating his man off the dribble, and should have had 3 or 4 more assists had his teammates been able to finish a little better. He also handled the ball on several occasions the full length of the floor through traffic leading to buckets for himself and his teammates. Also battled hard for rebounds. If you have a chance, the replay is worth checking out.

That's great news. Way to go Noel!

Edwards seemed to be pressing on offense early on, but as usual his efforts on the boards impacted the game while his shots weren't falling. In the 2nd half he made several winning plays, including diving for a loose ball on the defensive end and getting a time out called before Ohio was able to tie him up, intercepting one or two passes after Ohio had inbounded the ball, and a pair of steals on what appeared to be sure rebounds for Ohio. Plus those tough 3-pointers in the 2nd half and OT. It's been very impressive that he's shot 50% from deep this year considering the level of difficulty of his 3-point attempts thus far.  Buchanan was also really impressive again getting buckets whenever the Revs needed one. He's been able to consistently get to the basket and draw fouls this year, and is shooting 65% on his 2-point attempts for the season. It seems like he could be drawing a foul every time he drives to the basket. It's very impressive that as a first year player with his style of play, that he's able to play under control without drawing charges. His footwork, balance, and touch have stood out. I could see him becoming the primary focus of our opponents scouting reports in the not to distant future as he'll present match up problems for many teams we'll face.

Now that Kenner is winding down I'm starting to get excited for the upcoming basketball season and started to look on the bookstore site, Amazon and other online retailers for some Revolutionaries gear for myself and my kid and there was none to be found.  Does anyone have any insight on when gear will be available and what it will look like?

Here's the ESPN article announcing Yuta signing with the Suns. The article notes that Yuta played four years at Georgetown...SMH

Not sure if this has been posted yet but Jordan Geronimo has committed to Maryland.  It seems like it wasn't that long ago when transferring within conference for a power 5 player would have been unheard of.

Yuta looking real good with 10 points midway through the 2nd quarter. Getting plenty of mentions from the NBA TV announcers and David Aldridge even noted that Yuta is leading the league in 3point percentage.
