Greece Trip Ends in Heartbreaker | Arkansas Razorbacks Basketball News
Description
Auburn basketball ended their Greece trip with a heartbreaker, falling by two points to a Serbian pro team, but the loss came after a strong win the day before. Coach Pearl rested key guards Tahaad Pettiford and Kevin Overton—Pettiford tweaked his knee—to manage fatigue and injuries. With transfers Owen Freeman and George Kimble III out, plus two international signees awaiting NCAA clearance, depth was thin. Still, Bukky Oboye led with 17 points, Thomas Dowd dominated the boards with 18 rebounds, and Adam Olsen added 14 points on four threes. Turnovers (22) and shaky shooting hurt them, especially in the second half. Coach Pearl admitted the roster shortage likely cost them the game—but the trip delivered crucial film and experience. Back home now, they’ll integrate players and prep for the season ahead.
