Can't really take anything away from those final few minutes. Except that Nicholson is a massive human who ought to keep grinding in practice and in the weight room. Develop a few more post moves other than the dunk and he might yet be a good one for us.
Look at the progress Ryan Young has made, and extrapolate that to Nicholson. As Hungry said, doesn't look like a stiff and just needs minutes.
Very inconsistent. Showing his bad habits today with the loose ball handling, stupid running floaters, turnovers, etc.
In crunch time I like Greer and Berry.
Yep, definitely a step back tonight for Boo. Hope he watches the film and learns from it.
Also a tough game for Elyjah. Probably pressing against his former team. Not a good night for him, but his Mom killed it.
Let’s give Young a healthy dose of credit too. I know who our opponent was, but 39 points from Nance and Young on 16 (!) combined shots is efficiency that can win a lot of games.
Fwiw, Andy Katz, who was the color commentator on tonights BTN broadcast, has a daughter attending NU. So he is naturally pro-NU. But he was also right when talking about the team.
The only thing he missed, and it is a little nuanced, is that Young and Nance should play together and Nicholson get minutes off the bench as needed.

He might be 40.
I could see Keegan Murray was going to be good when he was on the floor last year. But he's being a monster. Impressive stuff
I’m pretty sure Elyjah’s mom was a football secretary for NU back in the early Barnett days.
