Good game last night for Mike in a loss to Toronto. 31 min, 17 pts, 6-11 FG, 3-7 3FG, 2-3 FT.
Yes, probably his best of the season. But after playing sparingly earlier in the season, he has become the second man off the bench for the Thunder - who as of now easily qualify for the playoffs.
Mike has played 120 minutes over the past six games, i.e. 20 mpg. In those games, he has 49 points, 27 boards, and 3 blocks. Has made 8-12 on twos, 8-27 on threes (dragged down by an 0-5 game) and 4-6 from the line. Per 40 minutes, he is averaging 16.3 ppg, 9 rebounds, and 1 block.

It’s good to see Mike making some 3’s to go along with his increase in minutes. He’s a tough defensive matchup when he’s hitting.

I'd love to have Muscala back on the Sixers who desperately need a 3-point shooter.

Sixers need a reliable 3-pt shooter...I love Mike, but he is not reliable.

I think he'll find his stroke. And when you're 6'11", you can do other things.
Let's see how he does over this next stretch with many more minutes. If he excels, his value will increase too.

Last night Mike missed his first three shots, then went 2-2 the rest of the game, all of them 3's. Adams was out, so Noel started. Mike played 17 minutes and was +6.
I listened to part of Doug's podcast interview with him, which was very interesting.

Guys have to shoot their way out of slumps. Mike wasn’t getting enough minutes to do that and now he is.

And just like that, Mike is on the bench again?

Adams was also out for a few games. With both he and Noel back there aren't many minutes available.

Are there any tickets available for the Mike Muscala Brunch on 02/15, and where can I buy 2?
I looked on the Bucknell Box Office site but do not see the brunch listed:

Scotty, thanks for sharing. The video shows just how good Muscala was at Bucknell, and how good he is in the NBA. Saturday's Muscala related events should be lots of fun to attend. BTW, is Muscala bringing the Minnesota weather with him? it is supposed to drop to 10° Friday night in Lewisburg!
GO MUSCALA!

Mike had a nice statline with going 4-4 FGs, 2-2 3s with a couple blocks in just 10 mins to head into the All Star break.
Hoping the down season and current losing streak doesn't diminish the crowd too much for Saturday.

From what I see at games, the down season has absolutely affected attendance.

The brunch was lots of fun. Good seeing NoMoney89 and Old Bison.
Mike is still very humble. He seems to genuinely appreciate his time in the NBA. He is a great representative of Bucknell.
