Jimmy Boeheim Highlights vs Duke

In this story:
Syracuse basketball fell to Duke 88-79 in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals on Thursday. The Orange was without its best player, leading scorer and All-ACC First Team performer Buddy Boeheim who was suspended by the ACC following an incident in the Florida State game. His older brother, Jimmy, tried to make up for that loss and nearly led the Orange to an upset victory.
Jimmy Boeheim had his best performance of the season, finishing with 28 points, seven rebounds, three steals and two assists. He has 11-20 from the floor and 6-9 from beyond the arc. You can watch highlights of his performance in the video at the top of the page.

In the first Duke game, Jimmy had 12 points but was just 4-11 shooting. In those two games combined, Jimmy had 12 points on 4-14 shooting. In the game on Thursday, he scored 28, more than double the total of the previous two.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
