Not a good start for Sean. He missed both public pre-season events with different injuries. Now this. Coming off almost 2 years from an ACL. Now we're down to a freshman as our only non-desperation option at the point. This was a mistake from the staff not bringing someone else in (non portal, whatever), especially considering Shaka publicly said Sean's lack of return last year was more on the mental side.

A couple of little things I'd like to see:

1)  See the floor better, stop overdrihhling in general. 

2) On tbe defensive end I think we should take a 1/2 step back on the perimeter, once our opponent is in their h-c set.  Stevens appears to be doing this pretty well.

The last eight minutes was when MU took over, led by the freshmen.  Parham got a foul and had to sit. Gold and Stevens came in and the run began.  Add a three by Phillips and a layup by Clark.  Very nice play by the freshmen, especially Stevens.  Give credit to Gold and his rebounding also.  Let's see rotations if the score stays under 20 for awhile. 

Owens losing playing time to a freshman Phillips is interesting so far.  Norman, no bueno....
