Â

Â
RETURN OF RED PANDA

Â
DARK MODE

Â
MADSEN WATCH
After his performance at Cincinnati, Gabe Madsen is now four 3-pointers away from tying the school record for career 3-pointers and five 3-pointers away from breaking the program's 3-point record that is currently owned by Nick Jacobson (2000-04) with 287 career 3-pointers.
Â
BOMBS AWAY
Utah guard Gabe Madsen finally broke out of his slump this past Tuesday against Cincinnati on the road. The 6-6 guard tied a career-high with eight 3-pointers against his former team – which is tied for the second-most in a single-game ever at Utah. Meanwhile his 22 3-point field-goal attempts set a new single-game record for Utah and also set a new single-game record at Fifth Third Arena record by any opponent or Cincinnati player.

CONGRATS PHIL!
