McFadgon had a tough day from the field, going only 2 of 11 and scoring only 7 points. He is averaging a very solid 19 points a game this season on 48% shooting, but the majority of those points come from his midrange game. He still has yet to show he can shoot from NBA range, shooting only 27% on the season and going 0-1 today.
Scooter made a concerted effort early in the game to get to the basket, but was unsuccessful, getting stripped on one play, and then on another showing good hang time with an athletic pump-fake mid-air before missing badly off the glass. He did a good job in man defense, but struggled on team defense, and in one possession in particular let his man cut to the basket for an easy feed from Andre Barrett.
Despite his troubles offensively, he did grab 6 boards, ran the passing lane for a steal plus And-1, and made a pretty pass from the top of the arc to James Peters for the alley-oop.
