That's extremely impressive! He hasn't played in a game in over a month and he steps onto the floor and does that is his first outing back. Man I wish he never got hurt, I'd love to see how BG did vs Nevada with him. And no way in hell we lose either of the games in New Jersey if we have him. Those two losses still sting. I'm more than happy he's back and glad to see us get a win under our belts again. Now the real fun begins, the MAC schedule begins next!mbenecke wrote:Juice went for 22 in relatively limited action during his return. Great to have #1 back.

Re: vs. Hartford (12/31)
Juice showed his typical quickness to the basket, beautiful touch on mid-range floaters and was sharp from deep. He appears to be 100% with the exception of minutes and extra time staying warm on the sideline bike. It would be great if he could average 25-30 minutes a game while the bench filled the minutes. The bench is not consistent at this time but is much improved over what we've seen this decade.
Note that Hartford might not be having a great year but they beat Northwestern, also not great but BiG10, in Evanston 2 days ago.

Man this team is just so completely different with Juice out there. After he got back acclimated to the game he looked pretty darn good out there. He played limited mins, obviously, and was keeping his legs warm on the bike between shifts, but he looked good.
Even though MAC season is here I hope they don't jump him back up to 25-30 minutes right away...I'd still like to see them ease him back up to his full workload. He's vital to this team going forward.
Overall just great to see another win. Frye is so much better as a shooter playing off Turner drawing attention than he is trying to be "the man."
Diggs really benefits from Turner opening things up as well.
Can't wait for Friday.
