We are back.

We continue our preview of the game coming up this Saturday against the Virginia Tech Hokies on the road in Blacksburg.

Jason.

You led us before the break.

You were talking about some of the players that could affect this game.

So give me your best shot.

Let's start with the freshman who has been doing very well for them so far this season.

I'm just going to go on record and say that according to Ken Palm, he shoots twenty nine point one percent from three, which means he's shooting 80 percent on Saturday.

That's just how that normally works.

But I also think, Jason, you mentioned one thing that I think is it feels funny because we've seen him play on certain occasions.

You and I have at least.

He has some athleticism that's not really like quantifiable.

He's had a couple of plays where he's tried to dunk the life out of somebody.

And it's so surprising because the rest of the game is very much like, okay, I'm just going to go about my business and do my thing.

And then there's just a certain point where he goes, nah,

Somebody's got to go, and it's you, and he's going to try and dunk on somebody.

So, again, when I think about Castle, I think about these momentum shifts and these momentum moments, inflection points, as John Shire would call it.

An inflection point will be Abdallah's trying to dunk on somebody.

I promise you he's going to try to do it because that is just an instant energy jolt to everybody in the gym, and he's providing that for this team.

I mean, look, it's always fun to see him do well.
