I didn't see it either. I'm gonna look at the stats tomorrow when I wake up. Cayce usually gives a good run down.

Showed off a lot of depth tonight, 11 players total played tonight & 10 of them scored points.

- Chat seemed to me that he didn't have his best game as it appeared every time he'd go in the next play he'd be out because of a mistake (not setting screen, rebound, etc.) but looking back at the stats he had a solid performance (13 pt & 4 Reb). Wish he had rebounded better though.

- Carrera rebounded well tonight like he usually does but didn't shoot particularly well at all, only remember him making one 3 early on in the game.

- Kacinas didn't really stand out, nothing I can remember to much he did go 8 pt, 4 rebs on the sheet tonight.

- Thornwell had a good game, really drove to the basket well and got to the FT line a good bit tied Duane with the most points scored today (14). Solid on the defensive end as always.

- PJ Dozier, man this kid had a good start to his career. The team to me just looked more in sync with him on the floor than they did with Stroman. He's a PG that has the threat to score the basketball, but can also distribute to his teammates really well. He surprised me being active on the boards and defensively as well, got a few steals and rebounds as the game went along. Really impressed in his debut.

- Stroman, looked to me like the same guy as last year pass first, shoot later. The one he did take he made, a 3 actually as the shot clock expired. Team didn't seem as in sync offensively when he ran the point. He actually didn't play the majority of the second half, Thornwell actually played the point once PJ needed to come out for a breather.

- Blanton got in at the end of the game, good to see him back out on the court. Looked stiff though moving around in limited time, don't think he's 100% yet.

- Notice had a great game defensively, a great offensive start in the first 5-6 minutes where he scored 12 of his 16 points mainly from the 3. Wish he was more consistent offensively, was interesting seeing him as the 6th man, wonder if he continues to play that role in the future.

- McKie got in a little bit, hit a late 3 in the final minute.

- Cobb played a little bit, very athletic for being a 290 big man interested to see how he plays throughout the year.

- Silva was the other really bright spot tonight, he's got to work on his shot but the other parts in his game were all fantastic tonight. He took a few charges, had a few blocks, played well defensively in zone/man & rebounded extremely well. The most athletic big we have BY FAR, feels like he could jump out of the gym, very excited to see his progression throughout his career. Shot well from the FT line to & just missed out on a double double, think he went 12 pts, 9 rebs.

Norfolk hung around, impressed by 2 of there guys that could absolutely hit the 3 but we pulled away in the second half to give us a nice cushion. Was good to see whenever Norfolk cut it to bout 5 we'd get a stop and a bucket and then extend the lead. All in all a good performance to start the year, ready to head back on Monday.
