The Zags improved in three critical areas against an excellent defensive team.

Cut down on turnovers? Check.

Hit your free throws? Check.

Bolton, without a doubt. We wouldn't have won it without his 3 ball. A case could also be made for Andrew, who played a great game the second half.

[TexasZagFan]

Went with Andrew...great second half.

Went with Andrew...great second half.

Definitely could have gone with Bolton, but went with Andrew for fighting through early struggles and coming through big time late.

Honorable mention to Bolton and to Chet -- such a game changer around the rim.

Game got close (2points), Bolton hit shots, game.
I thought his 3s swung the game in our favor.

[TravelinZag]

Check the individual stat category leaders for the multiple honorable mentions. Team kept its cool, played its game on on both ends of the court and fed the hot hands on offense. Well played and superbly coached.

Bolton is the right answer here....but great game from all the guards really.

[krozman]

Nembhard for me personally. The lack of turnovers are more his doing than bolton, who was amazing with his shooting. Really like what I saw when you have a defense that wont let the post players do their thing.

[TacomaZAG]

Correction Noted....................

As stated earlier, MUCH better FT's, TO's, and 3-pt shooting.

Went with Nemby for both shooting from behind the arc and running the show really well, including only 1 TO in 40 minutes. Coach can take him off restriction and give him the keys to the car again.

Go ZAGS

Watson should get honorable mention. I feel it was one of his best games. Andrew played with more confidence.

Nemb played 40

I thought several Zags were deserving of this one, but I went with Nembhard. I thought he played his best game, since UCLA. He kept the offense under control in the face of Texas Tech’s ball pressure. Six assists against one turnover was huge. He made a number of crafty defensive plays to get stops. He worked the clock effectively to close the game out.

Kudos to Bolton for timely shooting. Kudos to Holmgren for his defensive presence and rebounding.

FWIW

Nembhard, for ball handling, defense, rebounding, and hitting some big perimeter shots in the 2H. He was big in recovery from TT’s rally to within 2.

Runner up, Bolton. If he didn’t hit those perimeter shots in the 1H the game would been different.

Bolton kept us in it with timely 3's. He did chuck up 2 ill-advised "heat checks" though. Watson was huge when Chet was in foul trouble.

Went with Bolton. Feel like he lifted the boys with clutch 3s whenever TT made any kind of run
