Can Judah Mintz Carry Syracuse to the NCAA Tournament?

Syracuse 84 Virginia Tech 71 the orange get it done in their final game inside the dome at least in the regular season of this

2023 20-0 season, I'm Francesco Simone I had you covered at orange fizz for this Syracuse victory over the Hokies of Virginia Tech and the biggest takeaway at least for

Me from this game was simple. It was Judah mints 29 points The second most that was scored in his career the most being 33 in this very building against LSU all the way back in November

Most impressive thing at least for me was that he took over this game Offensively for Syracuse in the late guard Syracuse a big halftime lead and as you've seen across the last week or so

Just because Syracuse has that big halftime lead doesn't mean the orange you're gonna keep it NC State came back

It took the lead Notre Dame came back and almost sided this time though Virginia Tech got back close within about eight points

But Syracuse never let them get below that and it was really due to Judah mints

It was scoring around the rim After the game Virginia Tech did not have the guys athletic they didn't help with

Comfort and what that tells me is going forward throughout the rest of the season to regular season games left the ACC tournament and whatever

May happen after that treatments passed to be the guy for this team Adrian Andre

I thought about it at me this Virginia it's out here. He's got to be the guy

He is that dude to the Syracuse team and listen He's got some games where maybe he's not as efficient and you'll get the 15 points

But it takes him 18 shots and to get there Today was not one of those games 49 boards on only 17 shots if he plays like this if he could have that alpha

Mentality like he had today by the way and a handful of assists as well So wasn't well the ball long that some people say that he is sometimes if he can play like that

This is an entirely different Syracuse team. It takes pressure off Chris Bell who went one for eight from three today

But hey, that didn't really matter because Syracuse got it done scoring Anyway, Justin Taylor not a whole lot of offense for dinner JJ stall that you scored over 10

But not many more words that only Pran had a nice game off men's a big soup But nobody really stood out like Judah Vinci said he's the straw that throws the string

He's the best player on this team No matter what anybody's gonna tell you other words when he's playing like this

This Syracuse team can be absolutely anybody in the easy do North Carolina, Virginia Wake Forest

I don't care who it is if Judah plays like this Syracuse has a shot. He doesn't play like this

It's gonna be very very difficult for Syracuse to go anywhere whether that's the ACC starting it whether that's the next couple of games

Even that little road game is not a gaming surgery So I'd be a little by a couple of points Clemson's a really good team in its own, right

So if Syracuse wants to close out this easy way It's good use wants to somehow make its way into the NCAA tournament

The orange need Judah minutes to be that alpha leader that great score that he must tonight

I need that for every single beam the rest of the way once again 18471 Syracuse over Virginia Tech George at 19 and down the season couple regular season

Games to go until the ACC tournament and boy the orange are gonna be number three

You know being them to the bomb this way. I'm Francesco Simone. Thanks so much for today
