Also, MAJOR props to whoever was guarding Williams down the stretch, as he didn't score a single point in the last 6+ minutes of the game, and only got one shot off that entire time, at the very end.
per Mike Reis: Darius Beane would have been the player of the game but in the locker room he was informed one of the people shot at Mercy Hospital was his cousin. Mike Reis had Marcus on instead.

Sickening. Any idea if his cousin was one of the fatalities?

Couldn't tell from the articles I read.
That sucks
condolences to the Beane family
I watched a star being born for the Salukis tonight, #5 Darius Beane.

I'm afraid it is... I just now looked up a Darius Beane Facebook page, and right on the front of it is a picture of Dr. Tamara O'Neal - she was the ER doctor who was shot and killed by her ex-fiance.
Terrible news.....
That's so sad. Condolences to the family
A breakout game for young Mr. Beane, only to be marred by such a terrible tragedy. Best Saluki effort I have seen in a half for several years. They can be very good. How good will be determined by whether they can bottle and reproduce that effort.

They were rotating Aaron Cook and Sean LLoyd on Williams, and Cole, I believe they put cook on him the last 10 min.
Howard will win some games, their guards are fast. However they play dirty! lots of flops, and extra pushes or punches that were not called.
SIU turned off Howard's 3's the second half, or cut their scoring from 53% to 27% for 3, while improving our shooting.

They had Bartley and Beane in Williams’s pocket late in the game.
