Nick Faust had probably his best game of the young season in Tuesday’s 83-74 defeat of Lafayette.
Maryland was surely better with him on the floor than off it.
SEE RELATED:Here’s the rundown of how he wound up with 31 minutes played and how the Terps fared during each stretch when he was in the game.
FIRST HALF
* Started, exited at 15:37: Terps 9-5 (4:23)
* Entered at 10:39, exited at 6:08: Terps 12-10 (4:31)
* Entered at 5:08, excited at 0:01: Terps 11-2 (5:07)
SECOND HALF
* Started, exited at 15:16: Terps 12-5 (4:44)
* Entered at 13:00, exited at 4:45: Terps 16-12 (8:15)
* Entered 3:42, on floor at end: Lafayette 17-13 (3:42)
It comes out to a 73-51 edge over 30:42. Which means in the other 9:18, the Terps were outscored 23-10.
That’s quite a difference when Faust was on the court.
