Nice defense by George forcing a bad shot. Canes up 17-8. Nijel has helped with a couple of mid-range jumpers so far.
Wooga Poplar getting involved. Nice finger roll at the rim, then follows that up with a dunk from the baseline.
Pack gets into the paint and sets up Omier for the easy layup. Then sets up Wooga for an alley oop on a fast break. Need more of that from Pack. He has three assists so far today.

Wooga Poplar hobbled into the locker room with what appeared to be an ankle injury. But skys for a dunk. Ankle seems to be okay.
Miami getting arguably the most easy twos over a quality opponent this season. Shooting 60 percent from the field.
Bensley Joseph struggling offensively again, 0 points. He may be more effective coming off the bench.
If Miami can control the turnovers, losing right now 9-7, and get out and get back to a more attacking style and run Miami should cruise to a victory.
Poplar in a zone offensively. Hits a three and ties career high in points with 23. Miami up by only five right now with about five minutes left.
La Salle starting to hit shots from deep, cutting into the lead. Canes up by just four with 4:23 left.
Offensive rebounds by Omier critical to the close out. He gets another and draws a foul, then hits two free throws. Canes up by 8, 1:31 to go.
