14:22: Syracuse leads 13-8 at the first stoppage. The increase in tempo on offense has been noticeable. Orange seem content to hoist the first good shot and they’re coming quickly. Benny Williams has looked very nice and made a couple of jumpers over smaller defenders. A slide fade on them but very in control. Seems like a shot he should be able to get throughout the year.

18:40: First bucket of the preseason game goes to Syracuse on a lob to Naheem McCloud. Orange opening in man-to-man defense. Adrian Autry era has arrived.

Starters for Syracuse are JJ Starling, Justin Taylor, Chris Bell, Benny Williams C and Naheem McLeod.

A couple of notes from out Mike Waters. Syracuse point guard Judah Mintz and center Mounir Hima are currently in sweats and won’t be playing. Stay tuned. As soon as they hear something, you’ll hear something.
