    The article said USA would play Brazil today but I think that was made before the Brazil - Belize game where Belize pulled the upset, as it's USA against Belize today



    USA is scorching, up 21 - 0. Jacobsen starts, hasn't really done anything on offense but is definitely influencing things defensively. He moves well, and looks to have maybe been a Matt Haarms fan, judging by the hair

    Jacobsen has huge game in USA's win over Argentina in Americup



    5 blocks but also was able to step out and defend on the perimeter, that sounds good

    Incoming 7'3" freshman Daniel Jacobsen earns spot on USA Basketball U18 team

    https://purduesports.com/news/2024/5...-national-team

    and his head-turning performance at the workouts earned him a ratings boost, into the top 100 at #83. He only averaged 7.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks at Brewster Academy last year but beat out several 5-star prospects to earn a roster spot

    didnt even seem like they could have gotten the shots off, let alone made them

    Great season for Purdue, but I'm not sure what they could've done differently based on the games I saw. Uconn could make things tough for Edey, while still allowing Edey to get his points (but wear him down in the process) while pretty much shut the others down. There was no plan B for Purdue, but I don't know what it could've been based on the options. Maybe someone that's watched every Purdue game knows of something that they could've done differently.
    wouldnt say i watched all the games or anything, but a decent amount, and this is exactly my take

    I think most of knew this was how it was going to end. I also think this team isn’t much without Edey and it was exposed by a far superior team.
    i don't watch much college BB and had barely seen UConn, so I actually had some hope

    let's see...someone wrote a while back that we are best against teams that are similar to us in style (which i think is right), so we could give them some issues...

    ...ive noticed that least in the NCAAT, Edey doesn't try at all on defense for the 1H (to stay out of foul trouble), so if we keep it close at half, i like our chances
