Pipkins Posts Career-High 21 In Loss to Oakland
1/30/2021 10:10:00 PM | Men's Basketball
FORT WAYNE, Ind. - Jalon Pipkins scored a career-high 21 points but it came in a losing effort for the Purdue Fort Wayne men's basketball team on Saturday (Jan. 30) as the Mastodons fell 82-75 to Oakland.
The Golden Grizzlies led by as many as 11 points in the first half before the 'Dons cut it to one at 29-28. Oakland, thanks to a basket at the first half buzzer, took a 39-32 advantage to the break.
The Mastodon deficit was single-digits for the vast majority of the second half. The 'Dons trailed by three at 56-53 with 8:59 left on a 3-pointer by Pipkins. It was a Bobby Planutis three a minute later that made it a two-point game at 58-56.
It was a 64-61 game with 4:33 left but the Golden Grizzlies took just two shots the rest of the game, going 16-of-16 from the free throw line in the final 4:04.
Oakland finished the game shooting 26-of-33 from the line while the 'Dons made 2-of-2.
From the floor, the Golden Grizzlies made 25-of-47 (53.2 percent). The Mastodons shot 50.8 (31-of-61) while picking up 20 assists on their 31 baskets. The 'Dons finished with a 40-34 edge in points in the paint.
Pipkins did most of his damage in the second half. He had 13 points in the frame on 5-of-7 shooting with three 3-pointers. He also had three powerful dunks that, in a normal season, would've brought the Gates crowd to their feet.
Planutis totaled 15 points on a career-high five 3-pointers. Demetric Horton scored 12 points. Jarred Godfrey added 10. Godfrey will enter Friday's game 15 points shy of 1,000 for his career.
Jalen Moore had a game-high 22 points for Oakland.
