Was the turn-a-round coincidental with Guess’an re-entering with 6 minutes left in game?

N'Guessan was playing hurt today. Limited minutes.
Missed his rebounding, and defense.

Just curious…. Where did you hear that he was hurt? I have no idea if the announcers actually knew…. but they said his not playing wasn’t related to being hurt.

Jerome Tang said that David N'Guessan is in a lot of pain right now. They were hoping to not have to play him today. Knee issue. But N'Guessan was begging to get in during the second half.

Box score says that be played limited minutes. I did not watch. I had to listen. Young is usually reliable

Posts on X indicate Tang said he had a knee injury in his press conference but I did not listen to it. Don’t know if X is right or not.

Well that makes a lot more sense than what the announcers were saying today. He’s played a lot of minutes this year without much relief from the bench. That’s why it’s important to give the bench some experience in the non conference schedule. I’m sure he’s taken a pretty physical beat down this year.

Finister is often the sub for N'G, our starting lineup seemed to have Kaluma move over to N'G's slot and Cam down to the 3 slot. Finister brings the energy that N'G supplies as well as defense.

Yes, Tang did mention it in his press conference.

In the losses to Miami and Nebraska our team was playing hard until the end.
Against OU they kind stuck their tails between their legs.
I think we would have beat OSU if N'Guessan would have been fully functional, in a basketball since.
