Going into this game, there was quite a buzz nationally as 2 very likely lottery picks were set to face off inside Auburn Arena in Isaac Okoro and Georgia’s Anthony Edwards.
As we would see quite often during SEC play, Auburn would get off to a slow start, scoring just 6 points in the first 7 1⁄2 minutes as Georgia led 14-6.
But Anfernee McLemore would start a 12-2 run with a dunk that would also get the Jungle going.
Samir Doughty would cap off the run with a tough bucket in the paint to give Auburn its first lead of the day.
