Chris Kramer's pretty good month
Chris Kramer's been doing ok for himself in the D-League. Overall he's averaging 11.4 points a game and 3.6 boards, but in the month of February he started getting more starts and minutes and bumped those numbers up to 16.6 points and 3.9 rebounds. He shot 60% (holy crap!) from the floor, 45% (holy crap!) from 3, and 85% from the line, drawing 54 trips vs 68 FG attempts. For the year he's 56% from the floor and 40% from 3. How awesome is that?
Keaton's not shooting as well, but he's getting solid playing time. He's pulling down 5 boards a game and averaging just under 9 points.

They think it is a race between Purdue, Duke, and 'Nova. They eliminate 'Nova (4 games left including at Syracuse and home against WVU).
