Happy Will had a good game, he's taken alot of criticism an honestly legit criticism in many aspects IMHO.

He's a 7-footer who doesn't rebound and provides almost zero rim protection. To justify the playing time he's been getting he almost has to have a game like today offensively.

I'm glad he did and hope he can even give us half of that offensively for the remainder of the year because honestly the other two aspects are not ever going to be strengths of his.

As Al McGuire would say " He plays in a tuxedo." The tuxedo fit perfectly today.

Today was the Baker LSU thought/hoped they were getting when the signed him. A big who could stretch the floor and have a good post play inside. Basically a KJ Williams replacement. He’s a below average defender and worse rebounder. So you HAD to have his offense to justify playing him big minutes. Today you got it and the dominance of the game from start to finish reflected it
