With both Sahvir Wheeler and CJ Fredrick out, Cason Wallace had a lot on his plate today in Athens. Two early fouls in the first half did not help. However, it’s pretty hard to win on the road when your star freshman and third-leading scorer doesn’t score until the final minute.
With 52 seconds to go and Georgia up by ten, Wallace broke free and drove the lane for a dunk, his first points of the entire game. Wallace would put back a missed Jacob Toppin three 30 seconds later, drawing a foul, and sink a free throw to finish with five points, three rebounds, six assists, a block, and a turnover in 28 minutes.
