Bobby Hurley said Joson Sanon experienced back tightness early in the game. He said when Sanon tried to warm up after halftime, Sanon said he couldn’t go for the second half. Hurley said Sanon will be reevaluated to confirm he is healthy before ASU’s game against GCU.

For those who want to watch, a reminder, the ASU vs Grand Canyon game should start shortly on ESPN 2.

A lot of excitement by fans of both teams to start the game, much more so than I see at most NBA games.

Shawn Phillips Jr., a 7 foot LSU transfer, is impressive for the Sun Devils. He plays like a grown man inside.

The ball don't lie as Nunez was called for a flagrant 1 foul.

I wish there was a live ESPN box score for the game.

ASU leads 78-69 with 3:56 left in the game.

ASU move to 3-1 for the season. Their only regular season loss was to Gonzaga.

Grand Canyon is now 2-1.

An impressive performance from true freshman, Joson Sanon.

This team has a lot of talent. Sanon's offense, Jayden Quaintance's imposing defensive skills, etc. - ASU looks completely different than it did in the Duke exhibition. GCU was missing former Sun Devil Duke Brennan who would have helped against ASU's bigs, and Grant-Foster was playing his first game, but it was still an impressive outing for the Sun Devils. This team can shoot, and when was the last time we could say that? I think it's quite possible that we will see Sanon regularly at Footprint Center in future years.
