Tony Mitchell 34 points 16 rebounds, 2 steals.

Very proud of a win against a very very good team on a very tough floor, even with Rubit missing 75% of the game.

Hope he's okay.

looks like Mitchell may have arrived. What happened to Rubit?

Fell hard and hurt his tailbone, from the description. Limped back out late in the game, but didn't play again after the 11 minute mark of the game.

Ronnie Arrow said during the postgame that Rubit may miss the remainder of the season. Xavier Roberson also limped off the court during OT. USA now sits at 0-2 with a bunch of injuries. Doesn't look good.

Check that. It's Roberson that may be done for the year. Rubit is "probable."

NT did everything they could to give the game away at the end of both regulation and overtime. I'll take the win though anyway...especially in Mobile where we have had significant trouble in the past.

Mitchell was very impressive. His ability to hit those threes was surprising.
USA came into the game hitting over 74% on free throws but missed more than half of their attempts in this one.

Prior to this game Mitchell was 4 of 7 on 3's. With his 3-3 vs USA, now 7 of 10. Pretty impressive for a big, inside guy.
