If laughter is the best medicine, Jeremiah Tilmon is trying to use it as a prescription for his foul trouble.
With Jontay Porter out for the season because of an ACL tear, Tilmon’s ability to stay on the floor is paramount to Missouri’s basketball success. In his freshman season, Tilmon committed the fifth-most personal fouls per game at 3.67.
But while Tilmon has shown a better effort at avoiding the whistle this season, only so much of it is in his control. Instead of reacting negatively when a call goes against him, he’s now trying to have a sense of humor.
