RUTGERS VS PURDUE LIVE - NCAAM Basketball Game Score FEB 21, 2024

so let's keep huddling up with a stylish and fuel efficient RAV four Corolla or Camry or go wild with a rugged Tundra and Tacoma ready for you Toyota Let's Go Places Rob Blackman Bobby Rell let's talk a little big 10 Hoops only two teams out of the Big 10 by the way ranked in the top 25 this week they are Purdue at number three our buom makers fell one spot after the loss on Sunday at Ohio State in Illinois ranked 12th the only the Big 10 team in that top 25 although I don't know if Illinois will stay at 12 because in case you missed it last night what a game it was that Penn State the Penn State nitty Lions trailed by eight points with less than 40 seconds to go in the game yet came back to win beating Illinois 90- 89 Zack Hicks made three free throws with just under 5 seconds remaining he was fouled on the three-point shot stepped to the line made three free throws that gave Penn State the win teren Shen Jr had 35 points for the Ali in the loss but similar to our boil makers Bob Illinois had 18 turnovers in that game and that was a big part of why Penn State had the door open for them to come back and win that game and that's not the first time we've seen Penn State be able to pull off an upset like that and rack up a bunch of turnovers for the opposition we saw with Wisconsin earlier this year they did the same thing they made Wisconsin turn the ball over quite a bit and won that game but man what a comeback and it looked like kind of an electric atmosphere they played that game in a wreck Hall uh the smaller venue um fans rush the floor of course after getting the big win and uh just unbelievable comeback you know they when for those things to happen you need basically everything to go right that could possibly go right in those final minutes and they were able to pull it off Illinois of course made some mistakes there was a strip of teren Shane in the back court that you know was probably one of those calls that definitely maybe could have gone either way as far as a foul or no call but hey you're at home and sometimes you get those breaks and that's some of the breaks you need to come back cuz they did not call a foul got the steel scored a bucket and then Illinois make major mistakes by Coleman Hawkins down the stretch with the Miss free throws and then the fouling of the three-point shooter and uh turns out the boilers have a two- game lead once again in the Big 10 standing so we were definitely very aware of what was going on yeah so Purdue right now with a three losses in the Big 10 at 12 and three with five games remaining Illinois in second place at 10 and five with five games remaining so Purdue a two- game lead with five to play the other interesting part about last night's win for Penn State earlier in the week they had announced that Kanye clear who was their leading scorer was dismissed from the team 17 points a game they lose in Clary yet they found a way to win the game that is impressive that is impressive for sure I mean Kanye Clary a guy who can really play well off the balance had it seemed like you know just been somewhat it was a really good story right he was a guy who was the one returning guy for the most part from their team from last year him and jam Brown that play on this year's team and you know he was a role player last year and all of a sudden he had ascended into being their leading score had all kinds of highlight plays as far as his ability to score off the dribble make shots all over the floor and now you know you end up seeing this situation where he gets dismissed from the team the team uh responds and wins without you so uh definitely tough tough times for Kanye but you know did I did see where he was giving Jal Brown some props on social media for some of the big shots he hit down the stretch of that game so clearly he's still happy for his former teammates but definitely a tough situation also last night Nebraska winning at Indiana 85- 70 casay tominaga 20 points in the win for the Huskers don't look now but Nebraska's N9 and seven and they are in a position to be in the top four come the end of the season which of course means a double buy if in the top four in the Big 10 standings tonight there are two other games on the schedule Ohio State at Minnesota that's an 8:00 tip 8 Eastern in Minneapolis and Michigan at Northwestern tonight Michigan of course next on the Purdue schedule 9:00 Eastern the tippet Northwestern Purdue will play Michigan at 2:00 on Sunday interesting note from this game I've been told that Olivier kamwa will not be playing for Michigan as he is out injured and uh from what I hear here probably will not play against Purdue either on Sunday as it looks like that injury is season ending we'll certainly know more about that as we get ready to play the Wolverines in an arbor on Sunday when we come back to the pregame show a closer look at tonight's opponent the ruter Scarlet Knights our Scouting Report segment

the Rucker Scarlet Knights from Mackie Arena it's time now for our Scouting Report segment presented by Purdue Global puru online university for working adults I'm joined Now by assistant coach Brandon brandley and Coach we come off unfortunately having our nine-game winning streak snapped at Ohio State you know definitely a tough game where we didn't have our best effort but you know with you and the coaching staff you've had a chance to go back and look at that game what were some of the things that stood out that you felt like we need to do better you know I thought we we started the game off really well we we played hard and that wasn't an issue um we kind of blew some things on the defensive end what we were trying to do um and our coverage um and offensively um we've been so good at at moving the ball moving the defense is sharing the ball um and we kind of got away from that a little bit um but the great thing about a loss is that you get to Shar from the pencil afterwards and so watched a lot of film we got a really mature group um they they they they know how to get things corrected so um the best thing you know after the loss is like looking forward to that next game all right well looking forward to that next game today we play the Rucker Scarlet Knights they are 14-1 on the year 6 and8 in the Big 10 led by head coach Steve pel and this is our second time getting getting the Scarlet Knights this year with defeated them in pasca away earlier this year 68-60 but you know overall this program's definitely been a thorn on our side over the last handful of years and you know when you look at that what is something that this program's done in Ruckers that's posed a lot of problems for us they they a hard playing team I think Ruckers is is going to be a hard matchup for most people um um as I mentioned beforehand they do a really great job of playing hard they're really physical not a great shooting team but they um you allow those guys to get in the paint it's going to create problems um the entire game um so the one thing is you know when you playing these guys there got to be maximum effort got to really hunker down and concentrate on keeping guys out of the paint active hands um box outs throughout the the entire game um and sometimes you know you got young guys and they and they lose focus and they don't concentrate that's when that's when um you really see their strengths come out well kind of the elephant in the room as far as today's matchup goes is Jeremiah Williams the guard that has been a new addition to the team wasn't eligible for the first 20 games but has been now uh part of the fold the last five games for them and they've gone 4- one in that stretch he's their leading scorer since he's came into the fold at 13 points per game and he definitely hasn't been bashful either he you hasn't been super efficient he's taken TW roughly about 12 shots per game but you know just looking at him how does he change this record team gives him a guy on the perimeter that can um um some more offense um he's more driver than he is shooter um but you don't keep him out of the paint in the half court you let him get on the run and transition and all of a sudden like he's not he hadn't been a great shooter from the perimeter but all of a sudden you let him start getting those paint touches and he gets to the rim now that Bucky gets a little bit bigger and so they got a like a great like Eric Simpson is a guy who um kind of reminds me he's got some go Baker in him wants the ball late clock into the game he can make big shots so those two guys um when they when the chemistry is clicking it's really a hard Duo to to deal with well from a defensive standpoint this records team one of the best defensive teams in the country kind of feels like it's that way year and you're out you know you already talked about their physicality and athleticism but in our first matchup you know they did a pretty good job on on us held us to 68 points turned us over 15 times so for us offensively tonight what do we got to do against this defense to you know have a better more efficient game we got to be strong with the ball we got to make sure we stepping those guys off getting catches and getting catches where we want um I think we got to move bodies in the half court I think if you um you want to play one-on-one and ISO against these guys it feeds right into what they're looking for so we got to get the ball across the timeline got to get in the offense we got to move bodies we got to screen bodies we got to cut hard in said we got to move those guys and I think if we do that we will we'll find it easier to have some success against these guys all right last question with Illinois dropping their game yesterday you know the the lead in The Big 10 standings has gone back to two games and we have this chance now we have three games left at home if we're able to win all three of those games we're going to be at minimum coig 10 Champs so just how much pride do we have to have in defending home court here to finish out the season a lot of Pride you know you think about how many years Purdue basketball been in in existence and how many guys were able to say that they won a ring we got 25 so it's a lot of guys that walked out of here um that didn't get a chance to um win a conference title and we're in that position and so um me speaking as a guy who was I was fortunate enough to to be able to win three I remember the early days when you know we weren't in that position and and I was jealous looking at other teams because they were winning and so when you when you finally get a chance to be able to put yourself in that position you hold on and don't let it go so we got a bunch of guys on this team that um they know that feeling they won the conference last year and so it's smart enough old enough to realize that that we're fortunate enough um to not let this thing go all right thanks coach thank you Bo maker assistant Brandon Brantley visiting with Bobby Rell on our Scouting Report segment pregame show rolls along when we return to Mackie Arena tonight

[Music] YouTube Welcome Back to Mackie Arena nice to have you with us on this Thursday night Purdue and ruers round two as our boiler maker battle the Scarlet nights here at Macky let's visit with head coach Matt Painter his pregame comments brought to you has always by Purdue Federal Credit Union the official Credit Union for Purdue fans coach payer a quick look back at that Sunday loss at Ohio State even with the 14 turnovers as I went back and watched the games or the game even if you make a couple of Point Blank layups probably still win that game yeah you know just the fact that you know we're getting the ball where it needs to be and so like you know we were getting the ball deep in the post we got stripped a handful of times a lot of those strips turnovers ended up being you know run outs to where they either got a three uh quality shot or a layup and and so like you know taking care of the basketball is one thing but what type of turnovers if you're giving live ball turnovers like we did and then they're converting them we're not making them earn them in the half court and that was so important for us then to compound that you know we we we did generate you know some layups like at The Rim we had one possession where we missed three layups we had another one off an out of bounds play in the first half where we missed two layups we just had multiple opportunities and so that's your job as a coach like you know you have to work to try to get quality shots to get the ball where you want but then you got to secure the basketball and and that's so important we didn't do a good job of securing the basketball we didn't do a good job of our execution of being strong with it and and that's where we got to make some adjustments there and then do a better job so people aren't scoring in transition on us well we'll see if those adjustments work tonight against the ruter team we have already played Purdue beating them back on January 28th 6860 man I I I should have remember this coach I I had forgotten Purdue was outrebounded turned the ball over five extra times yeah and Purdue only shot 26% from three yet still won the game how was that statistically possible yeah you know the first half we held him to the fewest amount of points in a half that you know they've had all year so we hold him to 20 points in the first half I think that's how they played pretty well offensively in the second half but we're up 13 and half and just that cushion right there and putting us in that position I think is how we offset some of those numbers well they're a much different looking team than we saw back in January mainly because they have added Jeremiah Williams to their roster he had been suspended for that first game uh averaging 13 points five rebounds a game he's already been named The Big 10 player of the week and he's only played five games he certainly makes his team a lot different offensively does he not no question he can really uh you know work it downhill he can drive the basketball he's athletic he's got great size um you see with some of the numbers like you know it's hard it's hard to just jump into a rotation and you know play five games here in February and and do well he he's done great obviously he has some experiences where he's been at other schools but um you know add another piece another Defender they're so good defensively and now he helps them even more you look at their numbers against Purdue at least as of late and they certainly have played well I mean look they've won two of the last three times that they have faced us here in this building what is it that makes ruard such a tough matchup for our ball Club I would say it starts with the defense they're very grimy they're tough um they get after you they pressure the basketball they make it tough for you to pass um they give a lot and so like you know you learn as a season progresses each time out you got to give more you got to keep giving more you got more of a capacity to just to compete and they're great competitors they're great Defenders they're they're well coached um they've had some guys who can make individual plays I think that's what kind of concerns you on the other end of things like you got to contain the dribble you got to keep the ball out of the paint and not let them just break you down where you're always in help all right in closing they are second in the country and adjusted defensive efficiency are the Scarlet Knights Purdue is second in the country adjusted offensive efficiency something's got to give how do you score on these guys well I think you move the basketball you know I I think when you look at them if you're just going to dribble and try to make one-on-one plays constantly that feeds right into their hands they they have a very good foundation defensively they do a good job on the ball they do a good job in help and being in the gaps they don't want you to get in you know in there just like I talked about not letting them get in the paint they do a great job of keeping their opponents you know out of the paint but I think it starts with that you know I I I think like if you can on on both ends really if you can keep them out of of the paint and then you can live in the paint I think that's where it's going to be so important cuz when you're living in the paint you're normally getting fouled when you're living in the paint they normally overh helping you get those spray out threes just so many good things happen on both ends coach payer thank you good luck here

KS light made to chill proud sponsor of the Purdue boiler makers the tip is moments away this is boiler maker [Music] basketball time now for the keys to the game they're presented by FMC get season long disease protection from the inside out with zwe brand fungicides from MC all right Rob I think key number one is something we've talked about at nauseum already in this pregame show and that's going to be the turnovers for Purdue against Ruckers in the first match up 15 turnovers almost came back to bite the boilers as Ruckers was able to come back in that game and get it really tight down the stretch Purdue made enough plays to hold on but those 15 turnovers almost came back to HT Purdue we've seen this year when Purdue loses the basketball game which has happened three times times it's because turnovers get get away from him a little bit and and this ruers team is a really strong defensive team second in kenpom and defensive efficiency they really love to pressure the basketball can force turnovers and Purdue is you know at times can get loose with it and Purdue is a team that does not really Force turnovers at a high clip on the other end becomes that much more Paramount that Purdue takes care of the ball so if Purdue can keep the turnovers at 12 or under you know single you would love single digits but 12 or under I feel really confident about Purdue's ability to win this game on their home floor because Rucker is a team that is not a great offensive team on that other side of the ball second key is going to be the matchup between Zack Ed and Cliff Amore you know one of the more fun center matchups we have in the conference this year Cliff you know a guy who is so athletic so strong you know but when you look when you compared to Zack EDI just not near the same size as as big Z and Zach had a really strong first game against Ruckers n of 12 from the field very efficient 75% % field goal shooting in that game ends up with 26 total points got to the foul line quite a bit 13 free throw attempts in that game I'm sure Cliff Amore wasn't happy with his performance in that game so he's had this game circled I'm sure he wants to respond Give A Better Effort you know a little bit of an extra microscope on Zach after the six turnovers at Ohio State the way he was kind of getting stripped by Z key we'll see if Zach makes an adjustment there on the Block and then you know Zach is he able to shut down Cliff andore take away those lobs you know Ruckers is one going to want to try to get Zach in ball screen action and throw lobs over the top of the cliff if possible third and final ke a Fletcher lawyer to me I feel like this is a big game for Fletch Peru needs to get him going offensively and some of Peru's biggest wins this year Fletcher lawyer has been the man right 27 points against Tennessee 27 points against Arizona we're talking about how good Ruckers is defensively well Tennessee fifth in Ken pal def efficiency from a defensive standpoint as Arizona's 11 so we got to get Fletch going he's made the same number of Threes this month Rob as Zack Eed one ah you're telling me that's not good that's not good enough from a man flesh we got to get him going from deep and hopefully tonight back in macarina he can catch fire that is it for the pregame show Zach Edy about to be honored here at midcourt before we continue on with a tip off getting closer to the tip off of this game Zach uh this past Sunday afternoon at Ohio State became Purdue's all-time leading rebounder with his sixth rebound it was his first rebound of the second half and with that rebound he became the all-time leading rebounder in the history of Purdue basketball byp passing Joe Barry Carroll so right now Zach being honored here at Mid court with a special presentation honoring the fact that he is the school's all-time leading rebounder when we come back the starting lineups in the opening tip off for Purdue and rkers this is boiler maker

Aviation career today before we tip it off let's pause 10 seconds for station identification this is Baker basketball from learfield [Applause] Purdue at a nine-game winning streak snaap Sunday at Ohio State ruers at a four-game winning streak snapped Sunday at Minnesota rers interestingly enough they had lost four in a row then won four in a row and they lost that game in Minneapolis I was talking about Purdue had won seven in a row lost a game that was Nebraska then won nine in a row before losing on Sunday in Columbus one of the reasons reders got hot they put Jeremiah Williams on the active roster he helps he is a good one we'll keep an eye on him tonight wearing number 25 on the red jersey for the Scarlet Knights he's from Chicago so I'll assume he has a lot of friends and family in the building tonight Amore will jumping up against Ed at Center Court ball is tipped into the back court one by the Voom makers who will work their way right to left and we are under do it at Purdue's Macky Arena ruers opens up in a half court manto man Purdue chess pass left wing lawyer he's guarded closely there by Derek Simpson he goes right wing a pass to brayen Smith he uses a screen from Ed works his way to the top of the key not a lawyer who lob it into Ed spinning and shooting with a right-handed hook shot and scoring Zack Edy with a right Baseline jumper from 4 feet away and Purdue leads two to nothing well that's a great start there for Purdue getting that Ball Deep to Zack Edy and he gets into his hook shot ball doesn't get stripped on his way up that was a nice change and Z does what he does best finishing over the top with that hook Simpson using a screen from Andre Hyatt perimeter left now works his way right elbow Rises and shoots from 16 in and out and out again I thought that ball was going to roll in there but it's rebounded by rers Amore will shoot his shot was blocked blocked by Zach Edy a block shot for Ed Purdue with a possession Brayden Smith on a run right to left in the white uniform all the way to the basket layup good Brayden Smith makes it four to nothing Purdue beautiful drive there Bren Smith putting the pressure on that Rucker defense after the block shot don't let him get set Zack seals his man Zack eedy now 208 career blocks too shy of tying Matt harms for fourth place all time here's Jeremiah Williams the screen on the left wing works his way down the left side of the paint shoots a wild shot it's missed it's a loose ball rebound grabbed by Williams under the basket to Amore missed the shot went back up and scored a second time Cliff Amore scores that's already two offensive rebounds for the redru Scarlet Knights foru leads four to two more the makers with a ball against this manto man pressure jichael Davis really aggressive guarding the ball handler Braden Smith in the front Court top of the key Braden Smith on a catch Williams is on him left wing to lawyer now left further left side it goes to Trey coffin Ren shot clock at seven Braden Smith hesitation left Baseline floater good an excellent hesitation move on the stop and go for Braden Smith produ up six to2 you said it Rob the hesitation makes that play right there the defender Hyatt thinks he's going to pull it for a jumper really quick instead the hesitation dribble keeps it alive and gets to it easy floater Derrick Simpson left elbow 16 ft away Good Nice Shot Derek Simpson averages 9.6 a game it's Purdue six ruers four and that's an easy shot for Derrik Simpson that's his game he loves that little mid-range pullup and we see guys who like shooting in the mid-range have some success against Purdue's defense with that drop coverage Purdue left wing Lance Jones will pull the trigger on a three Busey Lance Jones that's a great sign Lance Jones lighting up the scoreboard from long range there on on the left wing a nice skip pass from Bren Smith but Lance the only guy who hit a three for Purdue in the last game i' like to see some other guys on this roster get involved from Deep Lance made three threes against Ohio State Purdue as a team was three of nine and here's a floater good Jeremiah Williams got into the paint and knocks knocks in a shot puru leading N9 to six my Williams right there got to that midrange area once again a nicee soft touch over the top of Purdue defense Purdue playing well offensively but got to get some stops here left wing caught by Lance Jones top of the key justest pass to Braden Smith now into Ed he's wide open underneath the buset a bucket and he got hammered he'll go to the foul line Jeremiah Williams knocked him to the ground but Williams was quick to help Zack up off of the deck after the hard foul first foul of the game was called on Jeremiah Williams and at the foul line will be puru Zach EDI nice to see a foul there on Williams of course we have seen how important he is to this Ruckers team since he's arrived five games ago Zack 80 bounces the ball one time shooting foul line left shoots and makes it how about Purdue in the game on Sunday what got overshadowed in the loss perue is 20 of 20 at the foul line just wild right I saw a stat as well where Purdue had a lot of uh issues winning games when they're making all their free throws up late which is a wild stat especially though when you make 20 in a row as Pur last game and Zach connects on the second one as well good start from Z back overall offensively here for to 11 reders 6 1630 to go we're in the first half Jeremiah Williams hand off to Simpson perimeter left now throws it up high side to jichael Davis who's working his way perimeter right stops goes down the left side of the lane and misses aoral rebound his shot up no good tipped at it no good rebounded by the ruter Scarlet Knights Williams a three off the tri the rebound is good to my count that's now four offensive rebounds on ready for ruter Williams makes the three it's Purdue 11 ruter nine and those are the perfect threes right those step in Rhythm threes kick outs from under the basket on an offensive rebound and here's a foul away from the ball against ruter Derk Simpson by the way I miscounted it's five five offensive rebounds

Collective supporting Purdue athletes visit bomaker alliance.com to learn more how about ruter they have five rebounds in the game total all five offensive rebounds they've out rebounded Purdue 5 to one Purdue the best rebounding team in the Big 10 second best in the country pretty shocking to to see Ruckers start out this well on the offensive class but I guess we should Channel back to the previous game where Ruckers out rebounded Purdue right in pasca away so Ruckers has had success obviously rebounding against Purdue but man five offensive rebounds this early definitely a killer cuz it's allowed that 5-sec chance Points 11 to n Purdue the lead Purdue the ball as we're back to action Lance Jones right Baseline 17 ft step back good Lance Jones with a great move against the defender puts Purdue up 13 to9 jichael Davis bouncing right side to the new man in the game this is Emanuel ago and he had just subbed into the game and he misses a baseline Jumper rebounded by Purdue Zach EDI a ble new to the team after missing most of the year because of injury Lance Jones a three air ball from the right wing grabbed on the weak Side by Derek Simpson of ruter here come the Scarlet Knights Hyatt will drive in leaving down low stolen stolen by Trey Koffman Ren on an interior pass Here Comes Purdue right to left one the makers on the Run braad Smith the ball left wing Trey Kaufman Ren top side to Lance Jones dribbles twice on the left wing throws it into Edy bad pass loose on the floor stolen stolen by jichael Davis of ruers here come the Scarlet Knights BR up 13 to9 5 minutes 10 seconds expired in the first half manto man defense for the boorder makers Williams just pass left W Wing to Simpson he'll Dribble To the left elbow rise and fire shoot Miss softly off the front of the rim rebounded by Purdue Zack Ed Zack two rebounds Four Points Purdue with a bow fortunate there Simpson likes that mid-range jumper pretty good defense by Purdue here see if they can get something going offensively bradden Smith right elbow he will fire and he will knock it home good start for bradden Smith six early points Purdue's up 15 to9 the Braden Smith pull up Jay off the bounce definitely a good option for offensively he loves that spot dribbling over the timeline Simpson guarded closely left to right by bradden Smith uses a screen top of the key keeps going leaves it down low for a ble it's loose on the floor Trey Kaufman Ren Dives in there to fight for it this will be a held ball possession arrow favoring ruter excellent Hustle by Purdue Trey Kaufman Ren Mason Gillis will sub for Purdue 66 red shirt senior from Newcastle so will Ethan Morton the 67 senior from Butler Pennsylvania new man into the game for ruter is Gavin Griffiths a 68 freshman from simsberry connectic a five-star recruit highest recruited player ever for Steve pel until this past recruiting class when he nabbed two more five-star players rers turned it over on the inbounds stolen by Peru Braden Smith as the ball went right through the hands of Amore almost a run out as well but Bren fumbled it on the steel fortunately was able to gather lawyer a three from straight away off the back of the rim no good good long rebound right back to lawyer he got his own rebound bounces it inside to Edy back to lawyer he tried to throw it inside and it was stolen stolen by Griffith a run out three at the other end good for rers Noah Fernandez who has just subbed into the game from Massachusetts a 511 fifth year player transferred from UMass and that makes it Purdue 15 rers 12 the live ball turnover right we talked about at Ohio State just a killer right there leads to three points right elbow jumper is good again in for Brad and Smith he is having himself quite a start to the game eight points in the first seven minutes he's really turned himself into a heck of a player his ability to shoot off the dribble going either direction so tough to defend Purdue is leading 17 to 12 over ruter 13-minute Mark of the first half dribbling left wing is jichael Davis right side griffi top of the key now he dribbles guarded by Gillis Gil kick in the corner three on the way this one is good as well for Noah Fernandez and then a technical on Fernandez because after he made the three right in front of Peru's bench he turned and said something to the perue bench and the official Michael Greenstein hits him with a technical foul the three-point shot counts making it 1715 Cam and Heidi about to sub in for the boom makers the 67 red shirt freshman from Minnesota lawyer at the line with two foul shots here and then we we will resume action lawyer makes the first foul shot lecher makes it 18 to 15 first scoring of the game for Fletcher lawyer and he made the second foul shot so now Purdue will inbound the ball as we resume action from the point of interruption Fletcher out of the game replaced by Heidi and whether it's warranted or not you know Fernandes gives the official the option to potentially make that call when he turns around and looks towards Purdue bench I'm not sure he really said anything but turned around in that fashion and just a killer right he's hit two threes in a row feeling good about himself than you hand Purdue two points my opinion that's pretty weak to call a there I would agree but we'll take it we'll take it but it's weak 1915 Purdue the lead Purdue the ball top of the key Ed dribble hand off Bren Smith left elbow stops there and pivots and turned it over his opposite key pass was stolen by hayatt and hayatt a run out a layup at the other end Andre hayatt his first scoring of the game Purdue's turnovers now three of them another live ball turnover leading to a bucket Purdue night ruers 17 top of the key Gillis swing it left side Ethan Morton top of the key now to Heidi he'll pull the trigger on a three got it triple time for the Freshman Heidi that's a huge hit for camon Heidi he's been hope for his last five from long range over the past month or so hadn't been a lot of volume but hadn't been able to cash in when he did get his chances huge for the Freshman to see that one go down he could be a big piece on the perimeter for Purdue he's a 44% three-point shooter Fernandez spinning and shooting from the left elbow and hitting again and again he looked at the Purdue bench but he didn't say anything it was just it was a quick quick glance we need a second tacnical on Fernandes quickly to get this guy out of the game 22 to9 Noah Fernandez Off the Bench eight quick points he averages six a game brue is leading 22-9 driving Braden Smith stolen away Hiatt a run out to Griffith he'll Euro Step his way to the rim and score right now Purdue turnovers are allowing ruter to stay in the game Purdue 22 ruter 21 at the 1105 mark this is brutal cuz Purdue when they haven't turned it over has been El lead offensively in this game against a really stingy defense Heidi perimeter left top of the key Gillis fakes a three does Mason back to Heidi now inside to Edy here comes a triple team kick it to Heidi now to Morton shot clock at seven top of the key Braden Smith catches to the corner a three on the way for Heidi good again Camden Heidi backto back triples timeout redk oh un technical foul no on the same thing Fernandes did right in front of the same official so it was not a timeout called it

lift he has six points Noah Fernandez Off the Bench for reders has provided a lift he has eight points and also both of them have been called for a technical foul in this game for taunting the other team's bench after making a three and with that said Fernandes will go to the foul line with two foul shots here for his technical shots before ruter will have the ball Purdue leads 2521 with 1043 to play in the first half Fernandes wears number two on the red uniform he's a transfer from UMass and he makes the first foul shot he's an 88% foul shooter played three years at UMass after playing one year at witchs State he missed the second foul shot now he's at ruter as a grab transfer and ruers will have the ball as we'll resume action 2522 Purdue the lead Purdue plays with Jones and Smith Heidi Edy and Mason Gillis subbing in for ruter for the first time is Oscar Palmquist 68 red shirt senior from Sweden gri over the timeline on a right-handed dribble gives it high side where it's caught by Williams between the circles left side chest pass to Palmquist he dribbles twice hands off GFF griffi guarded by Heidi freshman on freshman here griffi kicks it out far left wing shot clock at nine Fernandes now between the rings with it works his way right wing will rise and shoot a three and miss this one rebounded by Edy then lost now picked up by Gillis Edy was fighting like heck with Amore to grab that rebound Purdue ends up with it driving Lance Jones right Baseline to Gillis shooting a three on the right wing triple time Mason Gillis excellent push there in transition off the Miss Lance Jones stops on a dime with the behind the back dribble Mason Gillis relocates top of the key clean look for Mason he cashes in Pur up 2822 less than 10 minutes to go in the half Fernandez left elbow hesitation spinning gives to Palmquist right wing now to Amore who shoots from 12 feet away right wing missed it and Ed rebounded Zach Edy has four rebounds Lance Jones a three in transition missed it rebounded by griffi and then stolen by Heidi produ steals the ball after griffi had secured a rebound and now what do we have a stoppage of play maybe the shot clock could have possibly been uh put in a wrong position there it looked to me like certainly ruter had the rebound in The Possession before Heidi stole it back so that would give Purdue a fresh 30 and yes that's what they will do Purdue will get a fresh 30 actually they're going to put it at 26 because after they got possession they're saying yeah four additional seconds ran off and but yeah nice to have a essentially a full shot clock here to work with we do four turnovers ruter three but seven points off the turnovers for ruers that's a difference right now now putu up 28-22 Lance Jones in the left corner to Heidi quickly covered up by Palmquist now it goes inside to Edy little Zone here Ed against a Mory step through shoots and was fouled in the process he tried a right-handed hook shot as he was stepping through a double team and the foul will go against Jeremiah Williams that's two fouls on Williams that is significant and to the foul line will go Zack ed4 Purdue while we have a moment a happy birthday shout out to Tommy loose grattis assistant his birthday was yesterday as Ed dribbles once and shoots makes the foul shot a happy birthday to Terry Johnson assistant coach his birthday was yesterday and a happy Heavenly birthday to Larry kisby the K with a birthday yesterday a great day we lost the c three years ago this month Zach Ed at the foul line dribbling one time shooting that ball and hitting he's six points in a game is Zach with four of four foul shooting Pur up 30 to 22 with 912 to go in the half fandees dribbles over the timeline and we'll have a foul on Fletcher lawyer lawyer tried to jump the passing Lane on Fernandez and it's a charge on Fernandez I miscalled it lawyer takes a charge I thought the initial call was against Fletcher nope I messed that one up fans my apologies that is a ruter turnover and a a foul on Noah Fernandes lawyer takes the charge on a dribble handoff that's kind of that fickle thing with these dribble handoffs nowadays in college basketball if you run into the defender at all doing a dribble handoff they you know 99% of the time now they're going to bang the offensive player for illegal screen and we saw that happen there ID a three in the corner oh the Freshman is hot his third three of the half and Heidi we talked about how we wanted him to see one go down and well now he's seen three go down really feeling a good Groove offensively from long range we to a double digit lead at 3322 Williams on the left Baseline out High to Simpson swing it right wing to Hyatt he'll drive against Gillis and was fouled by Mason Gillis as Hyatt was driving in from the right wing that will send to the foul line Andre Hyatt the senior from the Bronx 74% foul shooter is hayatt first foul on Mason Gillis how about this Purdue team offensively so far they had the four turnovers and it feels like all four the baskets the other way for Ruckers but besides that Purdue has just been unbelievable from the field as Andre hayatt does hit the first free throw well you look at the shooting numbers Purdue from the three-point line is five of eight at 63% Purdue shooting close to 80% from the field Al together 11 for 14 they've made five of their last six shots Emanuel Ole has subbed in the 610 sophomore from Nigeria for ruter missed most of the early part of the season with injury foul shot good for hayatt made both four points for Andre hayatt and now here's full court pressure 221 variety Pur breaks in on the dribble bra Smith just dribbled his way through the trouble and now Purdue will run offense Purdue leads 3324 at the 825 mark Bren smith top of the key off a dribble working his way now right wing still dribbling throws in the corner to Trey Kaufman ryn right back to Braden he'll shoot a three good again a triple time for Braden Smith that's a mistake there by the ruers defense I know you're worried about Zach heed but you're sagging off Trey Kaufman Ren Braden Smith is one pass away you cannot be sagging off Bren Smith one pass away when you're already sagging off tkr Easy Pass easy open shot for Braden in Rhythm Rue leads by 12 Oscar Palmquist is on the right wing outside of the Ark throws it to the left wing caught by Williams Williams trying to work against Heidi drives and had it blocked out of bounds last Touch by ruter what a defensive play by Camden Heidi against one of the best

player he's played at Marist at Hartford Florida International and now finishing up as a seventh year grad student at at [Music] ruers oh what I wouldn't have given for seven years of God it was a really good block by cam Heidi he kind of packed it on got his hand on top of the ball as Williams went into his shooting motion and one of those were if it's a split second longer they maybe go to that jump ball call yeah but instead Williams kind of powers through it and then just rifles the ball out of bounds and it was a great call because sometimes you'll see the official keep the ball on that end even though it's clearly off the offenseive player because it got blocked or whatever but it was a good call while the offici because the block occurs and then Williams rifles the ball out of bounds as he tried to continue into a shooting motion it's Purdue 36 reders 24 745 to go first half reders is now in full court pressure at 221 variety Bru will try to break it bra Smith slowly dribbling the ball right to left stops near the midcourt strike bounces to Tre Kaufman Ren and that's how Purdue breaks the Press now Purdue will go into half court motion here against the man-to-man defense Boer left wing gives to bra Smith who's dribbling on the left Baseline guarded by Simpson brings it all the way back out to the free throw line goes all the way to the rim but missed it by right-handed layup good take didn't get it to go oé with a rebound for ruers Simpson in 8 ft away missed it oay the rebound he was fou as he went back to the rim Fletcher got hit with a tough screen there was telling Caleb first like hey he try to talk if you can't so you can call that out because O is a big old dude and he caught Fletch there pretty good and with Fletcher on the ground unfortunately as Caleb was defending the ball handler no one was able to box him out that allowed for the uncontested offensive rebound a ble at the line he's only made two foul shots all year but he's only attempted six and now he's two for seven and now a free chicken sandwich has just been brought into the equation and Fletcher pumping up the crowd a little extra as they want some chicken here back a ble has a lot of pressure here where's a red wristband on the right wrist dribbles twice shoots I got it booze raining down from the sellout crowd no chicken sandwiches for now Purdue leads 3625 711 to go first half again rers into full court pressure has four turnovers those four came very early in the game Trey cofman Ren over the timeline on the dribble is how will break the Press Heidi fakes a three dribbles in goes strong to the basket he double clutched and he laid it in Camden Heidi have yourself a game such an athletic play there playing off the close out right the sense of urgency by the Ruckers Defenders to close out after three made threes pump fake one dribble gliding through the air finish off the glass jumper at the other end is up and good by jichael Davis his first scoring in the ball game Peru 38 ruers 27 635 to play Camden Heidi is 11 points his season High 13 in the season opener against Samford brayen Smith dribbles right side Caleb first setting a screen for him first into the game BR Smith shoots from 15 ft away misses Caleb first rebounds and then he got fouled as he attempted to throw the ball back at The Rim Caleb first coming into the game and immediately pays dividends with an offensive rebound the 610 jior from Fort Lane fouled by Derek Simpson second foul on Simpson and Caleb first will be at the foul line with two shots 619 to go in the half Caleb first wearing the number one on the white uniform dribbling twice with the left hand to shooting and make it it seems to me like whenever Caleb enters the game the first thing he always does is get an offensive rebound well that is definitely one of Caleb's strongest assets as a player he's really good off offens M he's got great instincts near the basket this time gets fouled and goes to the line missed the second foul shot though so he goes one for two and then Lance Jones stole the inbounds uh the outlet pass I beg your pardon and it went out of bounds off of ruter Lance Jones jumped the outlet pass and ruter turned it over he did that at ruter also if you remember yep stolen Outlet pass deflected that thing off of Davis's foot and it goes out of bounds 616 to go ruers turnover there fifth rers turns it over 11 and 1/2 times a game blue with a ball Caleb first swings it with a chest pass right side to Lance Jones Lance inside to Caleb first on the Block trying to back down the defender turning and shooting and missing rebounded there by Jeremiah Williams of ruers to Michael Davis back to Williams on the high right wing four steps outside of the Ark guarded closely by Lance Jones shot clock at 15 chess pass right side it goes to Simpson now a Hyatt for an open three no good very lucky yeah because he was wide open rebounded by Braden Smith Hiatt is a 33% three-point shooter but he missed that one blue on the run here right to left lawyer left Baseline lost it out of bounds but last Touch by ruter for who keeps possession 18 on the shot clock Zach Ed will enter the game replacing Caleb first great effort from first off the bench in limited minutes these are the two teams in a big 10 with a toughest schedule perue number one in the country strength of schedule rers second in the Big 10 strength of schedule with a ball on the inbound lawyer driving in lobbing for Ed catching and dunking a perfect pass from Fletcher lawyer and Edy dunks it home with two hands I'd love to see that from Fletch having the vision there on the drive to find Zach sometimes I feel like with Fletcher he gets maybe a little bit too shot conscious on those floaters on those drives I love seeing him looking for Zach there Jeremiah Williams into the painted area gives to Andre Hyatt fakes a jumper at the right elbow throws it back to Williams who's now standing on the motion P at the center circle shot clock at seven Williams driving in the left block kicking it to Simpson Simpson to a teammate top of the key Hyatt shooting a floater up against the shot clock no good rebounded Fletcher lawyer out lets quickly to Braden Smith he'll push Tipo against hayatt fouled on the run boy Braden Smith just put his head down and was going aggressively to the bucket draws the foul from Andre Hyatt and to the foul line will go Bru Braden Smith timeout ruter with 442 to go in the half this is a 32 timeout with Purdue leading 41-27 while we we have a moment from all of us on the Purdue radio network our condolences to Dustin Harvey Dustin Harvey passed away earlier this week Dustin very active here in the Lafayette West Lafayette area in youth basketball there may not have been a bigger advocate for youth basketball players boys and girls in the city of Lafayette and West Lafayette than Dustin Harvey passing away unexpectedly earlier this week to Dustin Harvey's friends and Families please know we are thinking of you 442 to go in the half Purdue 41 ruter 27 at the foul line will be produce Braven Smith with two foul shots that was foul number seven on ruter but it was a shooting [Music] foul how about puru had those four early turnovers Bob and knock on wood haven't turned it over since and that's been critical right instead of it being a back and forth game really close one possession ball game now all of a sudden Purdue has bounced this thing out to a 14-point lead now 15 as Bren hits the first free throw and that's what happens right this Purdue team is so El lead offensively if they take care of the basketball they can go on huge runs and it also helps when they're getting stops on the other end a two-minute scoring drought right now for the Scarlet Knights bradden made both free throws he has 13 points already against a 13-point average in that first game at reders he had 19 points to six rebounds ra Smith playing well again against the Scarlet Knights here Michael Davis left block shot fakes lawyer took the bait and lawyer fouls excellent shot fake by jichael Davis got Fletcher lawyer up in the air and Fletch just came down right on top of Davis two foul shots coming for jichael Davis The 6-2 Freshman from Chattanooga Tennessee well I think that's a situation where you know fledge doesn't get put in too many positions where he gets to have that fun experience to try to be a shop blocker and he's guarding Davis here who's a couple inches shorter than fled probably 3 4 Ines shorter as David sinks the first free throw and so Davis he gets into that paint gets right to the left block pump fakes and I or picked up his dribble and I think Fletcher got excited like hey I'm going to block this shot and send it into the crowd unfortunately Davis had second thoughts and did a great job with the pump F Davis wears a black leggings underneath those shorts shoots and makes it he is a he's jichael Davis is a 48% think about this 48% foul shooter we just made both foul shots there Purdue against this 221 press breaks it by throwing it to Trey cman Ren at midc court now Purdue can run offense and ruers settles into zone defense kind of have to do this at this point cuz their manto man defense has not stopped Purdue think about that ruer struggling on defense boy you don't often say that Trey Coffman ran inside Ed he goes strong and he was fouled from behind I'm not sure maybe a Mory there about three guys in there battling it was a Mor Clifford Amore his first foul and two foul shots will BEC coming here for Zach Edy Amore comes into the game needing one block shot one block shot to equal Matt harmes former boom maker for 18th Place all time in the history of big 10 block shots Zack Edy makes the foul shot Zack Edy came into the game needing three block shots he has one so he needs two more now to tie the same man I just mentioned Matt harmes it's the race to Matt harms for Zack Edy and Cliff amorey right now Zack made both foul how about this Purdue foul shooting wow woo and how about you know we talked about with Zack Ed a couple games ago when he was kind of scuffling that percentage in Big 10 play it got down to about 6 6% we said man it'd be really nice considering how much we know Zach's going to be continue to get fouled if you could get into a nice Rhythm offensively at the line and U sorry cut J Bren Smith almost stole the inbound pass yeah he jumped it he knocked it out of bounds but yeah you're right think about this Peru went 20 of 20 as a team in

think about that first game in Piscataway Purdue scored 68 for the entire game right now they're at 45 incredible offensive display by Purdue but how about the offensive rebounding we talked about that first four minutes Ruckers with five offensive rebounds they've only got one in the last 12 here's a foul away from the ball Camden Heidi got knocked to the ground as he was trying to guard a cutting ruers player and Camden gets hit for the foul his second 352 to go here in the half rers the ball Baseline right they attack the basket two-hour right wearing their red uniforms Simpson out hi to Palmquist catches on the left elbow dribbles twice gives to Simpson now he'll pull up from the left elbow shoot and miss and faceing Gillis rebound had a good look just couldn't get it to go Purdue on the run right to left wearing white unit BR smith top of the key using a screen from Edy left to right keeps going all the way down the floor a behind the back pass that went through the hands of Zach Edy not a great pass and then stolen at the other end by Camden Heidi so perue gives gives it away and then takes it right back oh bradden try to highlight real over the shoulder pass behind his back to Zack that Zack just couldn't quite grasp but that Heidi really good transition defense sprinting back is in the passing Lane top of the key Gillis swings it left side Heidi back to the top of the key Lance Jones inside to Edy spinning and shooting and shot an air ball I think the ball slipped out of his hand actually runers has the ball now Gavin griffi at the three-minute mark driving down the paint blocked by Edy second block of the Night by Edy loose ball picked up by rudgers G Griffith throws it out High to oole he shoots an air ball rebounded Mason Gillis both both big guys shoot airballs but backto back possessions for with the ball here oh man Zach his face after that shot attempt was hilarious Lance Jones right wing shooting a three no good long rebounded by Oscar pished I think that shot came a little too early in the uh shot clock for Matt payon aole working against Edy and he was fouled he tried it up and under on the left block and Zach Ed hit with a foul that will put Emanuel ay at the line the 610 sophomore from Nigeria first foul of the game on zaged Ed in the game double figure scoring at 10 points now 78 straight double figure scoring games for him that is a tough bailout call there to go against Zach kind of flailing down there to get the C A ble dribbles twice shoots and makes it he's not been shy I've noticed about trying to get into his offensive game on the Block played one year at junior college basketball at Monroe College came to ruter out early in the season now back in playing he's only played this only a sixth game but he certainly gives them a presence inside at 610 260 and he makes both foul shots he has three points in the game all on foul shots 222 to go Purdue up 45 31 ruter now in Full Court defense 221 Braden Smith to Mason Gillis to break the Press Mason spins and shoots a three misses it long rebound grabbed by Camden Heidi boy Heidi's been doing a little bit of everything here Lance Jones a three left wing triple time Double Nickel capitalizing on the second chance opportunity Mason after the Press break finally turns and faces everyone leaves him takes the open three back iron Heidi there extra extra possession swing pass to Lance Jones unguarded left wing Fernandez to the right elbow dribbling against bradden Smith stopping not a palish top of the key left side Griffith dribbling for ruter he puts his head down dribbles to the right El we give to Simpson pulling up from 12 feet shooting in missing rebounded Mason Gillis of Purdue 90 seconds to go first half Purdue racing right to left with a possession quar makers leading 4831 over ruers Bren Smith all the way to the rim shot block tipped around once twice by ed0 picked up by griffi now ruter has a three-on-one and a run out Simpson to griffi and he was fouled from behind nice play by Mason Gillis instead of allow griffi an uncontested two-handed dunk Mason takes the foul and griffi will have to earn it at the foul line totally agree there Rob nice transition defense as of late here by Purdue Heidi got the steal on that one this time Mason sprinting it's a three-on-one situation you think it's going to be an easy lay in instead Mason comes back makes griffi Erna here at the line and look Griffith while he makes the first foul shot is a 52% foul shooter so statistically that's a good foul to give griffi wearing number 10 on that red uniform young man from Simsbury Connecticut second foul shot good so he makes the voam makers pay for taking the foul BL up 4833 again here's that 221 full court press produ troubles handling the ball of coming half court today not the full court press lawyer fakes a three right wing gives the BR Smith he lobs for Edy catching and dunking Bren Smith the assist Zack Edy the dunk just beautiful two-man game there Bren Smith the blow by there on the Rucker defense and he sees Zach near the rim puts it up there where only Zach can get it Purdue at 50 points 50 to 33 in the first half Davis had his shot blocked by Braden Smith of all people here's a run out Lance Jones layup good and Purdue's up 52- 33 unbelievable end to end play Braden Smith with the big time block on one end and then the vision on the other to find a streaking Lance Jones the number two offensive efficiency team in a country Purdue playing the number two defensive efficiency team in the country

the half it was 2521 Purdue a four-point lead Purdue then scored 26 seven points over those final basically 1045 to really open this one up rers tries to trap it half court almost stole the ball away but Lance Jones ended up with it Bron Smith had it lost it now it goes to Trey caufman Ren to Lance Jones left side he dribbles in throws a skip pass to lawyer catches shoot three for Fletcher is in and out no good Lance got the rebound threw it back up towards the rim but missed it strong rebound for Lance Jones but he couldn't throw it back into the bucket and now ruter has the ball Jeremiah Williams dribbling to the left elbow stopping and shooting a three it rims out and Fletcher lawyer gets the rebound as Purdue has The Possession now we played 40 seconds of the second half each team has had a shot each team has missed Bren Smith will drive kick to lawyer lawyer throws it inside to Trey Kaufman Ren well they double on him for the moment he's going face up against High Here Comes the double spins away from it shoots and scores what a shot by Trey caufman Ren spinning away from the double team that's just way too easy he he loves that match up there against Andre Hyatt Hyatt just doesn't have the size or strength to deter cofin Ren and right there he just allows cof and ren to go to his left shoulder as well first two of the game for Trey he had 12 against Ohio State on Sunday here's a steal for Edy ahead to Lance Jones he will dunk the ball with two hands how about Zack Edy leading the break on an outlet pass to Lance Jones Lance Jones Elite perimeter defense gets Jeremiah Williams to fall and lose the handle and then like you said Zack Edy the ability to have that quick feet on the perimeter and get that loose ball then pass ahead to Lance for the Finish Rue now leads 5633 high at an open three left wing in and out no good rebounded Braden Smith that was a good shot for ruter just wouldn't fall they have not been a good shooting team this season although in this game tonight they've been a good inside Trey C he was grabbed by the left elbow and there's the foul it was a delayed whistle the fans were a little set that they didn't get the whistle earlier but the foul was called on Derek Simpson his third that was a matter of Trey coffen Ren's spun so aggressively to the bucket Simpson was left in the dust so he just grabbed the elbow and took the foul instead of give up the layup p a makers inside short jumper won't go Edy will rebound and he will punch it home with two hands that was a vicious flush there from Big Z taking out a little frustration on the iron got to love having big Z down there to clean up any misses 14 points for Zach Edy six rebounds for Zach Edy Purdue leads 5833 over ruter and now fouled on the perimeter Fletcher lawyer got a little too aggressive on the ball and is called for his second foul I have to tell you fans I did not see this coming 25-point lead over ruter 2 and2 minutes into the second half it has been wild I feel like obviously puru has been Elite offensively but I feel like Ruckers offensively has had their moments where they've had nice things happen and they've got guys who are good Shooters quality shots as Davis hits the first free throw you know Derrick Simpson for example how many little open mid-range pull-ups as he had today that he just I feel like he makes at a much higher percentage than he's made here tonight Andre Hyatt's had a couple clean looks where puru had miscommunication defensively right and and rupor just hasn't made Purdue pay as much for their breakdowns second free throw was missed Purdue rebounding Braden Smith grabbed the board Lance Jones a floater no good rebounded e back in the bucket right now Purdue's best offense is just throw it up to the basket if you miss it so what Zack Ed will put it back in and that's where you do love Lance Jones right even though he's not to finish that he just has that burst and ability to get by and it makes heide Defenders come over floater in the painted area good for jichael Davis he has seven points 221 full court press now from ruter Purdue leading 60- 36 Lance Jones cross key pass to lawyer on the right wing throws it into Ed on the right block will they bring a double team no it's a triple team Dy on the Baseline gets it out of his hands to Lance Jones for a three yes sir Lance Jones another triple this Purdue offense is just so in sync right now if you play single coverage we're scoring if you double we're swinging around the perimeter and just knocking it in from Deep 15 points for Lance Jones He averages 13 a game high at left block gives it up to Amore shoots over Ed from 8 ft away and misses Braden Smith grabs another rebound Braden has five rebounds to go with 13 points Braden will shoot a three in transition in and out no good rebounded by hayatt of rudgers that would have blown the roof off of the building had that triple gone down in transition Hyatt at the other end right to left in his red uniform on the Block shoots a fallway jumper Banker no rebounded Trey coffen Ren of the poter makers 16 minutes exactly to play and Purdue leads 63- 36 over r if Purdue can win the game Purdue's magic number to clinch a big 10 Championship would be two bad pass Smith the Ed stolen by Simpson ruter on a run out three on two layup at The Rim good Cannon for Jeremiah Williams just miscommunication there unfortunately for Braden he thinks Zach is just going full head of steam towards the rim to go catch a lob Zach was kind of go matriculating his way more towards the rim and unfortunately Zach not able to get to that ball that bra through as a lob lawyer down the left side of the lane lost his balance but was alert enough to give it to Edy and Edy laid it into the basket wow smart play by lawyer he knew he was tripping and falling but quickly shoveled it to Edy yes he was able to sne that little bounce pass through right as he was falling and fortunately had that window Blue lead 6538 jumper from Williams air ball from the Baseline missed by Jeremiah Williams rebounded brayen Smith Bren Smith should have six rebounds now he does with 13 points five assists inside to Trey Kaufman Ren against hayatt right block turns to face spins now is in a double team steps through the double team lobs it to Edy Edy has the ball he was stripped out of bounds

the 1444 Mark with Zack Edy at the line shooting two foul shots here and he makes the first Purdue continues to shoot free throws except exceptionally well Purdue was 20 of 20 in the game Sunday at Ohio State in this game Purdue is 12 of 13 one more foul shot for Zach good day Zach has 19 points yes if I have that correct yes which means he's 19 no 20 20 I missed he is a 18 points away from tying Joe Barry Carroll second place alltime career scoring in the history of Purdue basketball after that Rick Mount is the only one left a top the charts Mason Gillis got a rebound and he got fouled as well he hustled in there to try to grab a loose ball rebound and as he was doing so he was fouled by Austin Williams of ruter so Purdue will keep the possession here ruter will again jump into its

and he makes that foul shot two Zach Edy in the game is 11 of 11 11 of 11 foul shooting with 1111 to the game I'm not sure what that means but I thought it was kind of cool literation coincidence there red the ball Purdue leading 7743 Bron Smith a steal he stole the ball from Austin Williams and then got fouled as he was running to the other end to play offense a steel by Braden Smith Austin Williams cause uh has his second foul committed Pur who keeps the ball here just Austin Williams being way too casual there on the perimeter against a guy like Bren Smith with quick hands Braden opportunistic there just gets his hand in the cookie jar 16 fouls for ruter Peru only committed one foul in the second half Caleb first top of the key dribbles twice with his left hand hands the ball to Ethan Morton Morton now the point guard dribbling left wing giving to Mason Gillis on a chest pass Palmquist on him inside it goes to First back out to Gillis back into first little Inside Out game

by Purdue Ethan Morton Purdue On The Run oh a no look pass Ethan Morton threw it out of bounds that is Ethan's 7th turnover of the year all year that's only his seventh committed turnover for the senior Ethan Morton well not to see the replay but Ethan jumps in the air I think Caleb first thought he was going to throw it to the corner and I Ethan felt like Caleb was open obviously he tried to throw it to Caleb and it went I'm guessing went right past Caleb's face right past his ear yeah Caleb never saw it he just what you said he turned his head and he never saw the pass coming 101 to go Pur up 7743 amorey trying to back down Caleb first on the left block gives the Palmquist he'll turn and score with a right-handed hook shot Oscar Palmquist first scoring of the game for the senior from Sweden Purdue up 7745 945 to play Purdue trying to improve to 13 and three in the Big 10 BR Smith right wing knocked away from him by Amore got back shot clock at seven now to Gillis left side Heidi shot clock at four cam will drive a reverse LP good Camen Heidi man is he having himself again that was an unbelievable finish around Cliff Amore jumping from one side the left side all the way to the other with the right-handed spinning reverse finish off the glass unbelievable the Hang Time by that play on the hang time there on that jump by Kan was extremely impressive and to challenge the best shot Blocker in the Big 10 Amore to boot and now here is a held ball Noah foul Caleb first tried to reach in and take the ball away from Amore and Caleb is called for his first foul 9:07 to go in the game 13 points equals a career-high for Heidi interesting you know Camden he had those 13 points in the first game of the year against Samford 13 in his very first ever college game and tonight he gets to 13 matching that career high here's a steel fighty his second steal of the game he stole the ball in the corner as rut Cruz was inbounding and things really just going from bad to worse right now with Ruckers you can tell maybe losing some of the concentration and focus as the score has gotten out of hand brue 79 Rec is 45 Mason Gillis between the Rings dribbles one time gives to Heidi right wing he'll hand to Caleb first now through a lawyer skip pass weak side to Lance Jones for a three no good rebounded Caleb first that's what he does he gets offensive rebounds first with a ball on the Block outside to lawyer now he'll screen for lawyer lawyer lost the ball got it back guarded closely here by Davis Caleb first will drive his layup good he challenged Amore and he knocked in a left-handed layup oh Caleb first really nice awareness and at a timeout for ruers but Caleb late shot clock there instead of trying to force something with the hand off top of the key he

time he shoots a three I think it's bottoms we'll have to check this at the next break Bob but I think now he and Heidi both are shooting better than 50% for the three-point line I'll check the numbers but I think both of them are with this game are now at least 50% or better three-point shooting for the season Palmquist throws it inside to Amore shoots and scores over Caleb first Clifford Amore a basket that was a really unselfish play there by pist that just made a three easily could have shot that one in Rhythm and it wouldn't have been a bad decision but makes you know passing up

makes that second free throw there getting active on the offensive glass and he does have more Mobility you saw that play had on the perimeter where he faked the hand off drove that thing and finished
