X Axis is Drives per 100 possessions

Y axis is Drive Points per 100

The farther to the right, the more often the team drives.

Hornets, Blazers, Bulls drive almost twice as often as the Nuggets

A key theme in the Billy Donovan post game presser is that the Bulls are not playing with enough desperation.

In addition to his decisiveness with the ball, what stands out to me from these highlights of Noa Essengue is his shot-readiness and, in lieu of the strength to get all the way to the basket at times, his use of the backboard.

Kylan Boswell and Andrej Stojakovic both fail to push their chair in after the press conference. As some know, one of the main things I track is chair manners.
November 12, 2025 at 4:36 AM
Illini freshmen David Mirkovic and Keaton Wagler logged heavy minutes vs Texas Tech only trailing senior Kylan Boswell in playing time.

Andrej Stojaković was coming back from an injury and likely on a minutes restriction.

Tomislav Ivisic, Brandon Lee, and Mihailo Petrovic were out with injury.

Kylan Boswell flagrant-1 foul called with Texas Tech down 5 with 12.5 seconds left.

Illinois had a foul to give but Texas Tech now get two free throws and the ball after this play and a chance to tie the game.
November 12, 2025 at 3:52 AM
JT Toppin for Texas Tech has been unguardable in this game. He has 35-points so far.
November 12, 2025 at 3:45 AM
Andrej Stojaković has yourself a game. 10/14 from the field.

He's been so good driving to the basket that the threat of a drive backs the defender up and creates space for the jumper.
November 12, 2025 at 3:39 AM
Illinois has to double JT Toppin now, only way to stop him. Kylan Boswell comes in right at the turn to get a jump ball call possession arrow Illinois
November 12, 2025 at 3:33 AM
Illinois can't guard JT Toppin and Texas Tech can't guard Andrej Stojaković
November 12, 2025 at 3:29 AM
JT Toppin for Texas Tech has 29 points and 8 rebounds

Texas Tech 65
Illinois 66

Andrej Stojaković gets over the screen then gets into the passing lane to prevent the bounce pass to the rolling Toppin, then takes it all the way on the other end for an and one.

He's been so important for Illinois on both ends.
November 12, 2025 at 3:18 AM
Texas Tech has yet to miss in the second half. 11/11 from the field and with 12:49 left in the second half the game is tied all at 55 with Illinois

JT Toppin slam dunk on the roll
November 12, 2025 at 3:04 AM
Illini freshman Keaton Wagler continues to impress, especially for being ranked the 250th best freshman in his class.

Illini freshman David Mirkovic pick n pop, pump fake, drive to the basket

How many called travels did Texas Tech have in the first half:

6?
