Film Session: UMass Lowell
Borovac begins to rotate up and Newkirk calls it out for Blackmon Jr:
Jahad Thomas hands the ball off to Borovac and gets his body in front of Blackmon Jr. to try and get Borovac some space:
As Borovac begins to turn the corner on Blackmon Jr., Bryant is there to meet him:
But as Blackmon Jr. continues to pursue Borovac, Bryant shifts off and more over towards Thomas:
Borovac scores at the rim:
On the way back down the court, Bryant starts barking at Blackmon Jr.:
Bryant scores and is fouled:
But he’s not done lighting into Blackmon Jr,:
Johnson steps in to calm Bryant down:
Was Blackmon Jr. supposed to switch onto Thomas with Bryant switching onto Borovac? Should he have come under Thomas on the handoff and avoided the pick? Or was Bryant simply upset Blackmon Jr. simply couldn’t stay in front of Borovac?
Either way, the Hoosiers were beat here for a River Hawks score.
