James scouted the Hurricanes to give you a leg up before today's game.

Michael looked into the numbers and sees that Tyler Lydon really needs to shoot more.

One guy who won't be shooting more today is Frank Howard, who is out with an "illness."

Update: Freshman guard Franklin Howard is OUT for today's game due to illness.
