great, great win.  game ball to Hugo even with JB coming up big down the stretch.

Death, taxes, and JB hanging 30 this year.

I like the 9rebs more than the 30pts.

Looks like the bench won this game for us.

[Who]

Hugo is one of those guys who is going to be underrated nationally because he doesn't score a bunch of points. But if you actually watch the game, he is such a positively impactful player.

He is one helluva rebounder....we have a real winner with the kid.

Hugo still reminds me so much of a young Dan Majerle. That hustle. That never give up mindset. Similar physique and athleticism. No fear. Hard nosed competitor.

Nice to see Garza have a bit of a resurgence the last couple of games.

Just watched the post game show, Scal and Drew gave the Tommy Award to Hugo yet again. That?s 4 straight games!

Woo hoo #18 in the bag .

It was interesting hearing him answer a question post game about whether Joe talks to the "stay ready" group about their playing time given it's sporadic and situational, and he said "yes he does, he says that he has plans for every person, but sometimes he goes for certain looks and he likes to mix things up and use all the depth this season, so it's all about making sure you stay ready whether you play 5 mins and then don't play for the next 4 games and then play again 5 games later."

I think Brad nailed the pick. Sure, he is a 19 year old, but his comfort level is amazing. You can tell this isn't his first stop in the professional leagues. I can't wait to watch him develop as we contend.
