Auburn Wins Despite Short Roster | College Basketball News
Description
Auburn pulled off a gritty 92-71 win in Greece against KK Mega Basket despite playing without four key players—new transfers, international signees awaiting NCAA clearance, and injured guards and forwards. Kevin Overton led the way with 21 points, joining five others in double figures. Coach Steven Pearl praised his team’s resilience against a physical opponent and highlighted Thomas Dowd’s all-around impact as a versatile transfer. The team showcased excellent ball movement with 22 assists on 33 made baskets, led by Tahaad Pettiford’s nine assists, while Bukky Oboye impressed with five blocks. They built a comfortable halftime lead and extended it in the second half, resting starters late. They’ll face the same team again Sunday—with a new game plan in store.
