GAME THREAD: USM @ FAU - February 2, 2019
Owls have just TWO points in the paint, and that comes from Adger's layup in the game's opening 10 seconds.#FAU's big men, Zecevic, Lepichev, Silins, and Niang have a COMBINED onE POINT. Niang is the only to attempt a FG, and it wasn't pretty.

Anthony Adger pulls the Owls within two with this three pointer! FAU has made 5 of their last 7 FGs, while the Owls solid defensive effort has allowed USM to convert only 2 of their last 10 FGs. pic.twitter.com/D0izimFts3

Dusty May's boys fall to 13-10 (4-6) after a valiant effort comes just short at the end. Adger's buzzer beater attempt from 3/4 of the court was too strong.
Adger - TH 19 PTS, 5 ASTs
Stapleton - 18 PTS
