Dylan Darling - College Basketball News & Rumors

Provides 16 points off bench Darling notched 16 points (5-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-11 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 87-82 OT win over Xavier.

Impact Darling provided a great spark off the bench Monday, scoring 16 points in a season-high 34 minutes of playing time. Despite his outburst in scoring it was not his most efficient day as he only hit 6-11 free throws, missed all three of his attempts from beyond the arc and turned the ball over three times. Despite the negatives it was still one of his best outings of the season and he'll look to continue that momentum Saturday at Providence.
