Catchings fire: BYU topples Baylor in overtime thriller, 93-89

By Jackson Posey | Sports Writer

When Danny Ainge took his seat at the J. Willard Marriott Center Tuesday night, he knew to expect fireworks.

Ainge, the Utah Jazz’s CEO of basketball operations, was scouting a pair of potential top-5 picks in Provo: playmaking BYU guard Egor Demin and slashing Baylor wing VJ Edgecombe. He got them — and a whole lot more — in an overtime thriller, as fellow freshmen Robert O. Wright III (Baylor) and Kanon Catchings (BYU) put on a show in the Cougars’ 93-89 overtime victory.
