Kudos to Darrell Brown, Jr. for his 34 point performance -
It is the highest scoring individual game so far this year for Bradley - and also...
-highest scoring game for a freshman in Bradley's 114 year history
-highest individual scoring game for Bradley since James Gillingham scored 34 vs. Drake on Jan. 15, 2003
-highest scoring game for any freshman in the MVC since March 21, 2011 (Doug McDermott)
-highest scoring game in the MVC by anyone - gotta think DB is lead candidate to get the Newcomer of the Week!
-34 points is tied for the 12th highest scoring game in all of NCAA Division I this season (10th highest in games against DI opponents)
(other notables- future opponent Ole Miss' DeAndre Burnett had DI's highest scoring game at 41 pts on 11/18, Illini's Malcolm Hill had 40 on 11/13, former BU recruit Charlie Moore had 38 for Cal on 11/16, Valpo's Alec Peters had 36 on 11/12, ex-ISU Redbird Zach Lofton had 35 for Texas Southern on 11/12)
-Only Charlie Moore of Cal (38 pts), and Markelle Fultz of Washington (35 pts) have scored more this season as freshman in NCAA D-I
-Darrell Brown, Jr. vaults into the #6 spot in scoring average in the MVC at 16.8 ppg average
-Brown also ranks 2nd in the MVC in 3-pt shooting pct. at 56.3% among those who have attempted 3 or more per game
-interesting thing - of the 25 highest scoring individual games so far this season - all but one was accomplished by a GUARD - the only forward in the TOP 25 is Alec Peters with the 7th highest scoring total of 36 pts vs. Trinity Christian on Nov. 12
