Deondre Burns said it has taken awhile to find his basketball groove after sitting out last season as a redshirt at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
"It's different," said Burns, a junior from Yazoo City, Miss. "I've got to find my role on the team."
Burns went a long way toward clarifying his usage Friday afternoon during UALR's 97-76 victory over Howard at the Jack Stephens Center.
Burns scored a career-high 29 points on 9 of 10 from the field and 7 of 8 from the free-throw line in a performance that reinforced several things Coach Darrell Walker already knew.
