Tate tallied the last three points of the half for a 33-30 score. At least they couldn't make enough free throws to overcome it. Stringer had six turnovers after totaling just 14 in his previous five games. He played 22 minutes, six below his average. It's a matter of teaching with him.
Point guard is a critical position.
This is his team to lead, and he'll be starting again Wednesday when we play Minnesota.
