Hodge explodes

One of the highlights of the keenly contested affair was in the second half when, with the score being 40-36 in favour of the Tigers, Hodge received the ball outside of the three-point arc and made his way to the basket, zipped past two opposing players and slammed dunk on two opposing players.

The explosive play sent the Tigers’ bench in a frenzy.

UCF would come back to lead 66-65 with mere seconds on the clock, before DeAndre Gholston hit a 3-point buzzer-beater to give Missouri the win.

Hodge and the Tigers are in action tomorrow, December 28, 2022, against Kentucky Wildcats.
