We got almost 4 minutes out of Lohner. He played his role perfectly. It won't show in the stats as he has 0 points and 0 boards, but 3 of his passes resulted in subsequent passes for scores. He pounded inside. Played good D.

THAT is what we need from a guy like him.

Well done, Caleb.


Plus he just wears in guys

We should have Bridges drive more. On an iso he is a lot quicker than guys his size or bigger and he has good handles. He needs to dunk more.
