LJ Cryer and Adam Flagler scored a combined 50 points and 8-16 threes as the Baylor Bears (4-1, 0-0) won 80-75 over the UCLA Bruins (3-2, 0-0).
Cryer was the go-to scorer tonight. His 28 points were a season high for a Bear and came on just 18 shots. He’s had a slow start to the season, and Baylor needed him to find his shot in this game to come out on top. Cryer competed on defense, as well, with 2 steals. He may never be a lock down defender, but if he can remain competitive on that end, Baylor’s ceiling this season is much higher.
