November 21, 2016 | Men's Basketball
The Chantilly, Va., native averaged 9.7 points off the bench, as BU collected wins over Northeastern (65-63), Maine (102-78) and LIU Brooklyn (86-69) to get to the program's best start through four games (3-1) since 2008-09. He shot 60-percent (9-of-15) from the floor, including 7-of-12 from 3-point range, while averaging 4.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 steals per game.
He first scored eight points and had five rebounds to help BU overcome a late 12-point deficit and defeat Northeastern for the Terriers' first win of the season before scoring a season-high 15 points in a win over Maine, as BU hit the century mark for the first time since 1994. The 6-foot-7 forward followed up with six points and a season-high eight rebounds in 18 minutes against LIU Brooklyn on Sunday.
BU will next seek its fourth straight win on Tuesday at 12 p.m. against Western New England.
