Illinois guard Brandon Paul scored 43 points in a 79-74 upset over Ohio State on Tuesday night. 43 points in a single game is the third highest output in Fighting Illini basketball history. Paul shot 11-for-15 from the field, 8-for-10 from long range, and 13-for-15 from the foul stripe.
Paul also contributed with eight rebounds, two assists, two steals, and four blocked shots. While this monster effort will more than likely never happen again, Paul is definitely a great fantasy player because of his ability to contribute in every category.
