The Baylor Bears played a physical brand of basketball on both ends of the floor, turning the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions over 17 times and getting to the line 26 times, a season high.
LJ Cryer led all scorers with 20 points and 4-9 shooting from three. He started the game 3-3 from deep. That set the tone for the rest of the game as the Bears shot 40% from deep.
Cryer’s bench-mob partners Jonathan Tchamwa-Tchatchoua and Jeremy Sochan added 14 and 12 points, respectively. Both had thunderous dunks and changed the game defensively when they came in.
