per Marcus:
Nate Mason was the reason the Gophers didn’t find themselves trailing at halftime in Wednesday’s 75-74 win against Indiana.
The other Gophers were 5-for-21 from the field, but Mason had 18 of his game-high 30 points in the first half.
The 6-foot-2 junior guard became the first Minnesota player since Vincent Grier in 2004-05 to have two 30-point games in the same season. He had a career-high 31 points and 11 assists in a 91-82 overtime win Jan. 1 at Purdue.
“This whole week of practice after that last game, my shot has been feeling great,” Mason said. “My cousin came to town. It was good to see his face. I hadn’t seen him in three or four years. He came to the game, and I wanted to play well for him. I guess it was a little good-luck charm.”
Akeem Springs joked: “We need to have his cousin come to all the games.”
