Fans, observing the Johnnies in warmups, noted a lot of fun athletic dunks. Asking about their concerns, those same fans were impressed by the athletic dunking... but were worried.
An issue with the Johnnies has been their long range shooting and the team did not seem focused. “We have to be ready to play 40 minutes, right from the start,” was a predominant opinion. Another concern expressed was an opinion that sometimes the team forces entry passes that are not really there.
For the second straight game Julian Champagnie, Posh Alexander, Dylan Addae-Wusu, Montez Mathis and Esahia Nyiwe were the starters.
