WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Jaden Ivey and Eric Hunter Jr. provided the second-half muscle No. 3 Purdue on Tuesday night.
They didn’t even need much help from their big guys.
Hunter scored all nine of his points during a game-changing run to start the second half and Ivey scored 26 points, 22 coming after he got angry, to help the Boilermakers run away from No. 13 Illinois 84-68.
Scary moment
Illini guard Trent Frazier had the biggest scare of the night when he fell to the floor clutching his left knee with 8:15 to play. Replays appeared to show his knee and Ivey’s knee collided. Frazier needed help to reach the bench, though he returned a short time later and finished the game.
