Tuesday evening, fourteen former Illinois prep athletes saw minutes in a NBA game. Below I look into and share each of their NBA performances from May 11.
Best of the day: John Konchar
West Chicago’s John Konchar scores a career-high 18 points in the Grizzlies win on Tuesday. His +36 plus-minus was the third highest for a bench player in Grizzlies history.
