Every opposing team needs to do everything in their power to dunk late on the Bulls in a game that's already decided. Make a game of it to see which team can make Nikola Vucevic the most pissed.

Best part of the fracas was former Thunder teammate Tre Mann grabbing Josh Giddey and play fighting while a nearby person thought it was real and tried breaking it up.

lmao. Nikola Vucevic does it again. This time he's pissed off at LaMelo Ball for a late game dunk.

After Keaton Wagler, Illinois' next best point guards are likely PF David Mirkovic & C Tomislav Ivisic.
Illinois currently having the freshman Mirkovic run the offense who finds Euro Chet here

Keaton Wagler picks up his fourth foul at the start of the second half. All ball, should not have been a foul.
College game is tough because only 5 fouls allowed even though starters can play 35-40 minutes more than most NBA starters play per game.

Illinois' opening possession, Penn State sends two to Center Tomislav Ivisic which the Ilini have the skill to really take advantage of that defense.
