2 Minute Timeout: Supporting cast stepping up for Auburn hoops · The Auburn Undercover Podcast

• 0:00
  look at uh Auburn's big win over Florida
• 0:03
  Saturday. There's a couple things that
• 0:04
  stand out. Um one was this team just
• 0:07
  this is just playing defense at a much
• 0:08
  higher level than it did earlier in the
• 0:11
  year, which is a a big part of things.
• 0:13
  Uh having a healthy uh Keshan Murphy is
• 0:17
  obviously a big deal for this Auburn
• 0:18
  basketball team. But when you look at
• 0:21
  the other guys right now, you look go
• 0:23
  Keshan Hall, Keshan Murphy, Todd
• 0:25
  Pedford, you say those are kind of your
• 0:27
  three scorers as you would call them.
• 0:30
  you know, the other the other guy as
• 0:31
  they're playing, you think about um you
• 0:34
  know, Kevin Overton, Sway, Jovich,
• 0:37
  Elijah Freeman. Those four guys come out
• 0:39
  for 25 points, seven rebounds, only had
• 0:42
  three turnovers. Um that's winning
• 0:45
  basketball for this Auburn team to get
• 0:47
  that kind of production from them. Um
• 0:49
  solid basketball, playing good defense,
• 0:51
  but not turning it over. They don't have
• 0:54
  to score a bunch. Um, but they're doing
• 0:56
  their jobs to to facilitate and and and
• 0:59
  keep those other guys engaged, too. And
• 1:02
  man, I I thought it was just a quality
• 1:03
  team effort. Um, you know, for this
• 1:06
  basketball team, but yeah, I look at it
• 1:07
  as a team and those other guys that you
• 1:10
  would call them. Um, if they continue to
• 1:12
  play the way they're playing right now,
• 1:13
  you know, Sway had a couple of big
• 1:15
  baskets. Jovich had a couple big ones.
• 1:16
  Overton knocking down some big free
• 1:18
  throws. Uh, Elijah Freeman doing his
• 1:21
  thing. if they get that kind of
• 1:23
  production from from those guys, this is
• 1:25
  a basketball team that will continue to
• 1:27
  grow. Um especially if they play defense
• 1:29
  the way they played it. So, um you know,
• 1:32
  obviously huge win for them and you just
• 1:34
  have to back it up. Um doesn't get any
• 1:36
  easier. Texas coming to town on
• 1:38
  Wednesday night as a Texas team is
• 1:39
  playing really well. Um playing good at
• 1:41
  home, hasn't played as good on the road.
• 1:42
  So, if you're Auburn, take care of
• 1:45
  business at home. But I think if you
• 1:46
  continue to play defense and get
• 1:48
  supporting cast the way you've gotten
• 1:50
  these last couple of games for this
• 1:52
  Auburn team, uh they'll uh continue to
• 1:54
  play really well.
