FAYETTEVILLE — Five observations, with video, as Arkansas hit the 20-win mark with a 98-80 victory over Ole Miss.
— Macon buckets
Daryl Macon treated Saturday’s game against Ole Miss like a mid-summer pickup outing at Harlem’s famed Rucker Park in New York City.
The junior guard performed with flair, played to the crowd and scored like he was going up against pickup game defense.
Macon dropped a career-high 30 points, the most an Arkansas player has scored since Dusty Hannahs had 33 in the SEC Tournament against Florida last March.
Macon was sizzling Saturday, knocking down 10 of 13 shots, including a 6 of 9 performance from 3-point range in the impressive victory.
