Tomislav Ivisic normally pops more than he rolls. But he is very effective on the short roll utilizing his vision and passing to attack 4-on-3

Coach Underwood appealed citing a missed flagrant. Refs reviewed and deemed Jeremy Fears Jr inadvertently tripped David Mirkovic here. No flagrant. Illinois loses a timeout.

Last year when Illinois visited Michigan State, Kasparas Jakucionis played only 8 minutes due to foul trouble. Could the same fate await Keaton Wagler tonight?

Added the ability to use ESPN analytics breakdown stats like defensive net points to my graph generator.

Favorites for the dPOY, by defensive net points (not including tonight's games)

A neat feature is I can share a link to the graph: billmill.org/nba/cumulati...
