DeAndre Mathieu’s twin brothers and cousin made the trip up from Tennessee to watch him take on vaunted Indiana point guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell.
So he had to show out for them.
“You can’t disappoint your family,” he said after the Gophers 66-60 win over Indiana. “I had to go get after it and go at him.”
He certainly didn’t disappoint.
Mathieu poured in 16 points and tacked on five assists to lead the Minnesota (16-8, 5-6) over the Hoosiers on Saturday night at Williams Arena.
