Last season Thompson was a thorn in the side against SHU, playing a clutch, complementary piece beside Keith Braxton and Isaiah Blackmon.
Xanbob1: Main reason was Dutreil’a foul trouble and I don’t hate Cohen over Thompson from an efficiency standpoint. B2B can be wonky but still think St. Francis PA is worth the play here.
