GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Syracuse — ACC tournament

[Roach]

Mustangs are playing good D, but Syracuse offense is awful

[PonyPride]

Orange without its starting point guard: JJ Starling getting work done with Syracuse trainers. Now on stationary bike.

[PonyPride]

Chuck Harris and Jyare Davis leading all scorers with 12 points each

[PonyPride]

Yiğitoğlu leaves, clutching left shoulder — in tunnel with athletic trainer

[PonyPride]

Starling, Syracuse's leading scorer this season at 17.9 PPG, is back

[PonyPride]

Ambrose-Hylton hits a pair from the line to stretch SMU lead to 51-38

[PonyPride]

Yiğitoğlu is back — a little surprising, considering his apparent pain a few moments ago

[PonyPride]

Harris finds Edwards running a post pattern behind the Syracuse D for a layup

55-41

[Roach]

Interested you see how much Samet has left in that shoulder

[PonyPride]

Field goal shooting

SMU: 50%
Syracuse: 32.6%

[PonyPride]

Miller drives and fires a beautiful no-look pass to Cross — both laugh when they realize that Cross is on the bench at the moment

[PonyPride]

Yiğitoğlu back on the bench with ice on his left shoulder.

After Ambrose-Hylton hits a pair of FTs, SMU leads, 61-45, with 3:33 to go. Wonder if Enfield will try to keep Yiğitoğlu out the rest of the way.

[Roach]

Hope so. Need him tomorrow night!

[PonyPride]

Taylor throws Cross to the ground as they jockey for space — leaves with his third foul with 1:59 to go.

Cross hits 2 of 2, stretching SMU lead to 67-49

[PonyPride]

Miller, Yiğitoğlu, Edwards, Harris all sitting out the rest of the way (Colbert and George in for the first time)
