FAYETTEVILLE — Zvonimir Ivisic will draw the headlines, and understandably so, but Arkansas got a much-needed boost from an unsung hero Wednesday night.
While the big man poured in 25 points, it was a pair of second-half buckets by Billy Richmond III that bookended the 6-0 spurt that finally gave the Razorbacks some separation in their 70-58 win over LSU at Bud Walton Arena.
Those were the freshman’s only 4 points in the game, but he also had 3 rebounds and 4 assists with no turnovers despite handling the ball a decent amount as Arkansas’ backup point guard.
