EP played exceptionally well. He had a double double with 10 points and 13 rebounds. He also had 4 assists, 3 steals, and one block. The block was when he came from behind to swat a layup by Long. One of his steals came with a few seconds remaining in regulation. He prevented the Sixers from attempting a game winning shot. He has turned out to be a fine pro which many of us doubted he would be able to do so. Shawn will get lots of time with the Sixers summer league team and in preseason next year.

Long with 13 and 6 tonight 2nd on team in scoring

Long with 13 and 6 tonight 2nd on team in scoring

Those kind if numbers (consistently) will lead to a Long career in the NBA.

A great night for Shawn. 18 pts on 8-10 shooting, 7 reb, 2 steals and an assist in 19 mins. He was +32 in on court differential and had a highlight put back

ESPN website review of game starts with career games by Long and Saric lead Sixers to road victory over Bulls. Shawn is doing better in his short time in the NBA than I ever imagined he would. NBA is one of most difficult sports fraternities in world to break into You have to admire young man for following his dream

Spot on. I am also pleasantly surprised by his success. His conditioning and improved footwork are really paying off for him. So glad to see this.

By the way Shawns contract is only fully guaranteed for the rest of this year. He needs to continue to impress
