Syracuse Basketball: Robert Braswell kept SU in game, Jim Boeheim says

Syracuse basketball forward Robert Braswell played quite well versus Pittsburgh.

Full disclosure, ever since Robert Braswell arrived on the Hill as part of the Syracuse basketball 2018 recruiting class, I’ve been high on him.

He hasn’t gotten a whole lot of run during his tenure in Central New York, but the redshirt sophomore forward in his limited court time has displayed tremendous athleticism. Braswell can shoot the rock well from deep, and he excels on defense.

His shooting proficiency was certainly the talk of the game after the Orange fell in heart-breaking fashion to fellow Atlantic Coast Conference foe Pittsburgh on Wednesday evening from the Carrier Dome.
