Tough Round of 8 loss for ARG today, as they fell to the Fightin' Doncic's of Slovenia, 81-80. As I'm a sicko, I watched the 2nd half on Youtube and ARG came back from down 12 to have a chance to win with the final possession. Unfortunately, their PG got into the paint but couldn't finish the shot (nor get the call) and Slovenia survived. Also, they will rue going 63% from FT (23/36), as that could've tipped the scales in their favor.

They really put the clamps down on Kropp as they triple-teamed him, and he went 3/7 on the night (1/1 from 3FG), when in previous games he was getting 17-18 shots up. However, he went 18 and 12, logging an iron man 35 minutes in the game. He had to earn his points on hustle and putback attempts - and ground out 11/14 from FT.

Thanks for this great update. So excited to have Kropp join us this year.

The highlights show some rough/weak competition, below the rim play, and an unwillingness to go to his left - it also showed a nice jump shot and a willingness to stick his nose into a crowded lane.

Not sure Im seeing those stats in a B1G game but would love to be wrong.

Can't expect him to produce like that in the B1G as a freshman. Though it would be fun if he did.
