As good as was that story, even better was the revival of Austin Hollins. He was lauded for three seasons for his effort by the previous coach, Tubby Smith, and the same review has been offered by the straight-shooting Pitino.
No player who puts that much into it should be required to go through the offensive misery that Hollins has endured in his last Big Ten season. His inability to produce at key moments had been significant in the Gophers’ offensive struggles.
“Austin deserved a performance like this,’’ said Andre Hollins, a junior who had been his primarily backcourt partner for the previous two seasons. “His games are limited now. He knows this is his last go-round.
“As far as I’m concerned, he’s the most professional guy on this team in preparing for a game. You never could tell if he’s in a slump or coming off a game like this by the way he’s going to practice.’’
