Missouri torched the nets on Tuesday night
Missouri earned a road win against the Ole Miss Rebels on Tuesday night, 89-77. The Tigers were scorching hot from beyond-the-arc, draining the most three pointers the program has ever made in an SEC game. They hit 16-three-pointers, connecting on 53.3 percent of their shots from deep.
Earlier in the season, Missouri also had a big win over the Arkansas Razorbacksβwho have had a very disappointing season thus far. The Tigers won that one, 79-76. While the results might not be incredible this year for the Tigers, the Missouri program just feels like itβs headed in the right direction under their first-year head coach, Dennis Gates. Time will eventually tell the story, as itβs still early in his tenure there.
Guard Kobe Brown has been the leader for Missouri this season, averaging 15.8 points per game and grabbing 5.6 rebounds per game. The most three-pointers heβs made in a game this season came against the Ole Miss Rebels, when he hit four.
A native of Huntsville, Alabama, Brown played his high school basketball for Lee High School. According to the On3 Consensus Rankings for the 2019 cycle, he was rated as a three-star prospect and the No. 37 small forward in America.
