Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images Ebuka Okorie looks to stay hot and keep Stanford out of the loss column as the Cardinal welcome Seattle University to Maples Pavilion on Friday.
Okorie ranks third in the country and first among freshmen averaging 25.5 points per game. He is coming off a 26-point outing in a 93-66 win against Louisiana on Tuesday, his fourth straight game posting over 20 points to begin his collegiate career.
“(That) was probably his best floor game,” Stanford head coach Kyle Smith said. “Obviously he scored, he seems to score all the time. But you’re starting to see the extra pass, starting to see the guys on a roll. … The better he gets, the better the next guy gets. It’s been fun to watch.”
Chisom Okpara added 22 points and five rebounds, and Cameron Grant had 15 points while going 5-for-11 from 3-point range on Tuesday for the Cardinal (4-0), who wrap up a five-game homestand on Friday.
“I was very pleased with the way we played tonight,” Smith said after the win against Louisiana. “The first 10 minutes were very competitive, and they’re tough.”
The Redhawks (3-1) have won two straight heading into their first road game of the season. They secured a 94-67 win against Eastern Washington on Nov. 12 and are coming off an 83-74 win Saturday against Idaho State, a game in which both teams scored 40 points in the second half.
“We went up 19 (points), and I think there were 11 minutes to go and a timeout, and I was talking to the guys about how the next three or four minutes would be the difference in the game,” Seattle head coach Chris Victor said. “Idaho State, we’ve got to give them credit, they fought the whole game. Thirteen offensive rebounds, which kicked our butts down low, but I’m proud of how we finished.”
Brayden Maldonado, who leads Seattle with 23.3 points per game, had 22 points, two rebounds and six assists against the Bengals, and Jojo Murphy added 14 points off the bench.
“Brayden made some free throws down the stretch to get us the stops that we needed,” Victor said. “And Jojo played great. … Good to see Jojo come in and score some points.”
Seattle went 4-11 on the road last season. Stanford went 17-3 at home after winning five straight at Maples Pavilion to kick off the 2024-25 campaign.

Van Dijk points to ‘easy goals’ and ‘bad atmosphere’ after latest Liverpool defeat
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk reflected on a "very bad" atmosphere after his side's 3-0 loss at home to Nottingham Forest.Following a bright start at Anfield by Arne Slot's side, Forest scored a controversial set-piece goal against the run of play, where Dan Ndoye was adjudged not to be interfering with Alisson's line of sight as Murillo struck the opener. The visitors had a second goal disallowed for handball minutes later. Things went from bad to worse 39 seconds after the restart when Nicolo Savona doubled Forest's lead and Morgan Gibbs-White's thumping late finish left Liverpool to slump to their second consecutive defeat by a three-goal margin in as many weeks and left them in the bottom half of the table.

Michigan State HC Tom Izzo: Jeremy Fears Jr. ‘As Good As Any Guard I’ve Had’
Jeremy Fears Jr. is off to a spectacular start for the Michigan State Spartans on both ends of the floor, and it shows in the box score.Over Michigan State's last two games, Fears has totaled 26 points, 24 assists and five steals, and the redshirt sophomore guard has caught head coach Tom Izzo's attention."I'm never satisfied. I think his defense can be a little better because I think he's an absolute dog defensively, meaning he'll dog you. Not a dog in a bad way. He can get after you. He's a pitbull in that when he wants to be," Izzo said about Fears after Michigan State's win over Detroit Mercy on Friday night. "Now we're getting him a little rest, 28-29 minutes [per game] is probably perfect if we can do that because he's got to push the ball, he's […]
Sparta zdržovala, mínila Boleslav. Vítej v mém světě, řekl Priske kolegovi
Boleslavský trenér Aleš Majer, který byl v hodně chladném odpoledni do utkání tak ponořen, že koučoval jen ve svetru, se u postranní čáry několikrát chytal za hlavu. Sparťanský kouč Brian Priske se pak dostal do výměny názorů s domácí lavičkou a po utkání si vše vyříkával s vedoucím domácího mužstva Markem Matějovským.Reakce aktérů? „Bylo to úplně v pohodě. Nešlo o nic zásadního. Říkali jsme si (s trenérem Priskem - pozn. aut.) něco k tomu, že Sparta hrála v závěru pomalu. On mi to totiž vytýkal po zápase na Spartě, že po 80. minutě za stavu 2:2 jsme pomalu rozehrávali. Říkal jsem mu, že tady je to to samé,“ vylíčil Majer.Zmínka o tom, že zdržovali, hosty nenechala v klidu. „Nepřijeli jsme sem zdržovat utkání. To nikdy není náš záměr, naopak my jsme ten tým, který chce držet tempo utkání. Ale když máte pět minut do konce, vedete o gól, hráči jsou pod tlakem a mají zodpovědnost […]
