Tim Hardaway, Jr. and Dion Waiters put on a ridiculous show in the Rising Stars duel. Hardaway ended up 12/23 overall, 7/16 on three-pointers, and 5/6 on free throws to end up with a game-high 36 points. Meanwhile, Waiters finished 10/14 overall, 4/6 on three-pointers, and 7/8 on free threws for 31 points. Neither player started the game. Fellow Wolverine Trey Burke was 3/12, 0/7 on threes, dished out 6 assists, and had 1 steal on his way to 6 points.
Team Hill (Waiters) beat Team Webber (Hardaway, Burke) by a score of 142-136, and Detroit Piston Andre Drummond was named the game's MVP with 30 points and 25 rebounds.
This was amazing to watch. I was jumping off the couch.
ReplyDeleteSmall correction: Burke was on Team Webber, not Hill.
burke was on team webber i think, it should also be noted he had no turnovers
ReplyDeleteBoth of you guys are correct - Burke was on Team Webber.
DeleteWhere did Waiters play his college ball?, he was on fire.
ReplyDeleteHe was at Syracuse, but he was gone by the time Michigan played them in the 2013 NCAA Tourney.
DeleteNice to see you broadening your horizons there Thunder.
