Speaker 1 (00:00):
Begin early on Brayln Mullins, who got his first start
as a member of the Yukon Husky's the freshman knocking
down a long range three. Mullins picks up the loose ball.
He's out on the right sideline. It's the caravan back
to Mullins for three.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Oh he drilled it.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Oh baby, I was from Trumble Street and Yukon lays
nine to seven. That's what he can do. And it's
five minutes in. You kind of the thirteen to seven.
They fell behind early, five to two, one and eleven
to two. Run to open up a six point lead.
Then a solo ball on a fast break opportunity for
ukut off a miss by Texas gave you kind of
(00:39):
twenty to sixteen advantage, and they run to the front
court for a three off the right side of the rim.
No good rebounded by ball, the misshot by Wiltshire.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Here's ball diving inside and he.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Scoops it up and the solo ball silky smooth, and
Yukon lays twenty to sixteen.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
So solo going coast to coast.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Right there you go on extended to twenty three sixteen,
eleven minutes to go in the first half after making
four or five field goals. They were kind of hot
in stretches tonight, and that's the way they've been most
of this season.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
They get hot for.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
A while and they can pull away from you if
if you're not careful. Jalen Stewart then from long range,
here's where we start getting into Red and his assists.
This was his fourth assist in the first half alone,
only thirteen minutes into it.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Baul On the outlet.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Back to him, They bounce back to Red, they double
them again, and Terris backs away fire is it right to.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Stewart for three?
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Stewie delivers a triple, a great pass by Terras Raid
cross Clark to the open man.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yukon's lad is eight. You talk about finding the open man.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
That was a cross court passed by Terras Reid to
the open man Jalen Stewart, and Stuart delivered the three.
He had ten points tonight, Stuart in eighteen minutes of
the game and Yukon, with Jalen scoring from long range,
led thirty to twenty. It was our first double digit
lead of the game that with the seven and a
(02:07):
half to go. Then read again, how about this backdoor
passing to Caravan as the lead is shrunk to four
points with under four minutes to go in the first half.
This is Demri out front to caravan right when it's
read read a dribble and a fire in the back
door cut the caravan for a layup. Reid's got five
(02:28):
count them five assists. Tonight and Caravan we mentioned at
eighteen points in thirty six minutes, led by six. Right
there again Texas battled back and they were within four
points two points actually when Reid went to work on
the board, off a drive from Melchi Smith Demray front court,
(02:50):
left right hand dribble, drives to the basket all the
way in.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
He gets hit, no foul call.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Reid got the repound and he put it back up
and end. So it was the drive that time, not
by Malachi Smith, by Silas Dimrie Junior. Reid was there
for the putback and terrorists who had six rebounds, five
assists to go along with his twelve points and thirty minutes.
And as he just told us, he really isn't one
hundred percent from that ankle injury that was bothering him
(03:17):
over several weeks. He missed five of the ten games
played up to this point, but you can see how
much of a difference he makes when he is on
the court. As the Yukon held their own on the
boards against a really good rebounding Texas team only got
out rebounded by two in this one, thirty one to
twenty nine. So Yukon at halftime was up nine forty
three to thirty four, and they were shooting lights out
(03:38):
in the first half, the Huskies well over fifty percent.
They end up at fifty five percent on the game,
holding Texas to thirty eight percent.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Well more on the stats in just a moment.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Then the second half began and the Huskies started crashing
the boards themselves. And this was a fourth chance bucket
by Alex Caravan, tip by Mullins to Caravan, who had
attacked the rim. I missed the shot, got his own
rebound back to ball for three solo, no good rebound.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Mullins Hey tips it's a Caravan. Hey.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Caravan lays it in a one touch assist by Brailon Mullins.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
That was beautiful.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
That was a beauty by Brailon Mullins. As Yukon steaded
their lead to forty nine to forty one. Then Malachi
Smith and he's done this most of the year already
his first.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Season with the Huskies.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Comes off the bench, plays twenty one minutes as Silas
Demery had some troubles in terms of turnovers five turnovers
in the game in nineteen minutes, only one field goal.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
But Smith seems to be a bit of a spark plug.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Doesn't score big numbers, but he made some important buckets
and this was one of them. With about eight and
a half to go and Yukon leading fifty seven to
fifty one, Malachai Smith on the right sideline front court,
right left hand dribble, starts to his left, keeps his dribble,
now tries to penetrate on Heidi beats him.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
He lays it up in head. Oh what a scoop
shot by Malachi.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
That's a big one. He's done that a couple times
this year. Puts up a shot that looks like it's
almost school yard and he's able to scoop it up
off the glass. That was an important bucket for Yukon,
but Texas hung in. They kept on coming back, and
it took this sequence to kind of open things up
for Yukon. Will eat in the game, shot clock running
(05:18):
down Yukon not in a good sequence offensively, weren't going
to get a good shot.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
They had to do something.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Solo Ball got the ball about forty feet away, about
five feet inside the timeline from the right wing, right
in front of Dan Hurley. He had to launch it.
He did, caravan with it back to solo. Husky's got
to get a bomb off and ball fires at all.
He hit that from Asylum straight the three ball. Here's
(05:46):
Will showing a drive blocked by Reid Raap out it, honey.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
How let a ball? He just threw in a forty
five footer. Here's Carabad for three yes, back to back triples.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Oh, Sean Miller heartbroken, pulls the time outs. Texas was
pushing the envelope for sure. Then suddenly Yukon leading sixty
one to fifty six and we're up sixty seven to
fifty six, and that pretty much shut the door. There
was one more gem from Malachi Smith though, with a
minute and a half to go, Malachai driving it right
(06:22):
backs away, fourteen to shoot into the paint, step back,
seventeen footer and he knocks.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
It down straight away. Malachai Smith, Oh that's a big one.
Sixty nine sixty one, a minute twenty.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
To go, and he ended up winning at seventy one
two sixty three. Yukon goes to ten and one on
the season.
Begin early on Brayln Mullins, who got his first start
