COLUMBIA The Missouri Tiger men’s basketball team has added a potent shooter through the transfer portal.
Jacob Crews, a 6-foot-8 wing, comes to the Tigers after converting 41.4 percent of his 3-pointers at UT Martin last season. He finished with averages of 19.1 points and 8.2 rebounds per game this season for the Skyhawks.
If any team in the country needs a fresh start provided by its conference tournament, it’s the Missouri Tigers.
After going winless in conference play, Missouri will open Southeastern Conference Tournament play tonight against the Georgia Bulldogs in Nashville, Tenn. Game time for the 14th-seeded Tigers (8-23, 0-18) and 11th-seeded Bulldogs (16-15, 6-12) is approximately 8:30 p.m. at Bridgestone Arena (SEC Network).
