As the Gophers’ 2020 season comes to a close, fans should just enjoy watching Daniel Oturu. During Wednesday’s game against Indiana, Oturu put together another memorable performance for NBA scouts. The senior big man scored 24 points and snatched 16 rebounds in a 72-67 loss.
In the second half, Oturu stole the ball and finished a massive dunk on the other end. He was also dynamic off the dribble and dominant on the low block. His versatile playmaking ability has been a bright spot during the Gophers’ three-game losing streak.
