The first half saw a closely contested battle, with neither team leading by more than six points. Mintz’s transition dunk just before halftime gave Syracuse a 33-28 advantage heading into the locker room. Mintz contributed significantly in the first half, scoring 17 points, including a notable 10-of-11 from the free-throw line.

Mintz continued his stellar performance in the second half, opening with eight straight points to extend Syracuse’s lead to 41-28. His scoring burst, featuring a layup, a three-point play, and a 3-pointer, prompted a timeout from LSU. Despite a response from the Tigers, Mintz maintained his impact, countering with a driving layup to regain a double-digit lead.

Syracuse further solidified their dominance with a 13-0 run ignited by Chris Bell’s 3-pointer with just over 13 minutes left in the game. Bell’s additional 3-pointers, coupled with one from Justin Taylor, widened the gap, leading to a lopsided scoreboard that read Syracuse 66, LSU 42 with about 10 minutes remaining.

Judah Mintz’s exceptional performance, combined with strong contributions from his teammates, propelled Syracuse to a resounding victory, highlighting their offensive prowess and defensive effectiveness. The win improves Syracuse’s record to 5-2, while LSU falls to 4-3 after the matchup.
