It was a very good Thursday night for James Padgett.
He had 15 points and five rebounds in the second half after coming off the bench. That much was obvious.
SEE RELATED:But Maryland also played exceptionally with him on the floor of an 81-65 defeat of Boston College.
Padgett was a whopping plus-26, which is the best individual game for a Terrapin all season in the category. Three of the top six plus-minus numbers were achieved Thursday:
26: James Padgett vs. Boston College
20: Terrell Stoglin vs. Cornell
18: Nick Faust vs. Boston College
17: Berend Weijs vs. Albany
16: Alex Len vs. Cornell
16: Sean Mosley vs. Boston College
15: Alex Len vs. Georgia Tech
14: Nick Faust vs. Samford
14: Sean Mosley vs. Georgia Tech
13: Ashton Pankey vs. Colorado
13: Terrell Stoglin vs. Samford
13: Alex Len vs. Boston College
It’s hardly an end-all, be-all stat, and single-game numbers can get skewed (Stoglin, despite his 24 points, was just plus-3 against the Eagles). But there’s no denying the Terps played exceptionally well in Padgett’s 27-minute stint.
