First thing you notice with Abraham in comparison to the beginning of the season is the work he’s put in improving his body. Standing a legit 6-foot-9, Abraham is still a massive force on the block and he didn’t waste time in showing his textbook footwork to get over his left shoulder for hooks off the glass or utilizing his soft touch to put it right over the rim. Clinton Grace’s gameplan early was to feed him in the post as much as possible and there were good results. In the second half as they switched to more of an up-tempo trapping defensive attack, Abraham spent some time on the bench, but would enter the game and immediately assert himself on the offensive glass. It was impressive to see the freshman not only live up to the intense environment, but really carry the Eagles through the first half and keep them in position to make a run. He finished with a double-double of 10 points and 10 rebounds.
