Mid-Major Basketball Coverage

On the Summer League court out in Vegas, the two top point guards from the mid-major ranks did battle last night. Weber State's Damian Lillard put on a show for his Trail Blazers, scoring 27 points, including a 5-for-10 effort from 3-point range. He did have three assists, but also tallied seven turnovers. On the Houston side, Iona's Scott Machado had just eight points, but dished six assists to just three turnovers. The interesting stat comes in the +/- column where Machado's +22 crushes Lillard's -20. Memphis' Will Barton had eight points, two rebounds and five assists for the Blazers. So who won the battle of the guards on Tuesday night?
