Can't even opine having had to miss the first half, but Kuath should get some props -he was the difference down the stretch.

Kueth also had 2 steals per ESPN box score. Led the team along with a couple others. His one swipe on top was particularly nice.

Let's be honest, it should go to Curbelo.

Can we please do this just to tweak Illini fans all year?  Please?

I'm not sure yet who should get it but it's no slam dunk for Morsell. Need to make those FTs if you're the alpha dog.

Morsell scored big again, but missing all those huge FTs ... I don't know. I mean, it wasn't just 1 or 2, it was a bunch of 'em.

Over and over again Kuath was making big defensive plays. Even when he didn't block shots, he changed them. The fact that he played quite poorly in the first two games but really responded when we needed him against a quality opponent ... I think that means something.

Morsell, Lewis and Kolek also deserve consideration, obviously. And Shaka, if we could give it to a coach.

And yes, as a few others said ... the main reason we won the game ... Curbelo. Man, was he bad.

Kuath for the 5 blocks and the steal at the top of the key in crunch time.  Needs to work on his offense, but the blocked shots in the paint were fantastic.

Morsell.

Definitely not SOTG worthy but Mitchell shut down Curbelo for the last 6 minutes after they switched Morsell over to Frazier. Great defense from a freshman.

Morsell.

Kolek and Kur honorable mentions.

If we’re disqualifying players for missing free throws down the stretch I’m not sure anyone qualifies. Kur missed 2. Kolek missed the only one he got. Stevie missed 2. I believe Lewis missed one, but I might be thinking of earlier in the game.
