Big play there... could've been Hughes' fourth foul, instead it's a great play for UW.

Seems that Evans provides some good energy to the floor usually.

Brian Mason: 
Definitely ... makes those youthful mistakes, but he provides a real boost sometimes, too
Saturday December 12, 2009 5:40 Brian Mason

Brian Mason: 
Some great anticipation on his part on that last possession for UW as he saw the miss coming and was in position for the put-back
Saturday December 12, 2009 5:40 Brian Mason
5:41
Patrick Herb: 
Interesting... UW has only attempted eight 3-pointers out of 45 shots today. Really working to get it inside.

Patrick Herb: 
Leuer is having a DAY!!! That was a move you won't see many 6-10 guys make. Off the dribble, rise up over a defender and splash an 18-footer. Love it.
Saturday December 12, 2009 5:45 Patrick Herb
5:45

Leuer a rebound away from a second-consecutive double-double now

Johnson-Odom certainly made things easier for Hughes there. The shot clock was winding down and he would have had to make a quick pass or shot after collecting the ball
Saturday December 12, 2009 5:50 Brian Mason
5:50
Brian Mason: 
How about Leuer, though? Had his first double-double on Wednesday and now has another tonight ... 50 points and 20 boards over the past two games for the big guy
