Joshua and Cosby power the Grizzlies to a win on senior night   [player_tooltip player_id='2209462' first='CJ' last='Joshua'] is one of the most underatted inside players in the state - Thought the big fella was brilliant tonight.. He set the tone early on grabbing some tough interior rebounds and finishing with the left hand. He showed floor spacing ability, knocking down a huge three before fouling out. He finished the game with 19 points.   [player_tooltip player_id='1587894' first='Caleb' last='Bowen'] is an intriguing stockrisers - Bowen played with terrific pace and showed great offensive skill. He knocked down multiple threes and even mixed in some mid range shots. He carried the Trailblazers for much of the game.   The Trailblazers young players signal a bright future - I came away thoroughly impressed with sophomores [player_tooltip player_id='1633205' first='Drake' last='Afe Passion'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2199605' first='Fabian' last='Gomez']. DAP showed an impressive handle, and the ability to use his positional size to be effective on the perimeter. Gomez played with a ton of energy, defending, and slashing to the basket.   [player_tooltip player_id='986969' first='Jordon' last='Cosby'] reminds everyone that he's still one of the best shooters in the state. - I've covered Cosby for many years, and the one thing that has remained consistent is his ability to shoot the ball. In fact he's been a shooter for so long that some times he gets taken for granted. No one in a Grizzlies uniform took him for granted tonight, the senior guard finished with 5 threes including 3 big ones in the fourth quarter to push Spring Valley to the lead.
