Hunter scored 38 against Ole Dominion on Feb. 2, In that same game, Hunter knocked down 10 3-pointers, second-most to the school-record 12 he made at UTSA. Mitchell set a Jack Stephens Center scoring record and his 10 3-pointers are the second-most of any player in the NCAA this year.

4 Georgia State Men s Basketball Notes (page 4) BIG-TIME WIN FOR #HURRICANE RELIEF Georgia State earned an impressive win over crosstown foe Georgia Tech during the exhibition season, but more important than the win was the cause. The A-Town Showdown for Hurricane Relief came together in late-october and brought the teams to McCamish Pavilion to raise money for the hurricane relief cause. More than 2,100 fans cheered the two teams on as the game raised money for those effected by three hurricanes in the fall. EXPERIENCE IS KING Two Georgia State players reached the 100 career games played mark during non-conference play. Last year Georgia State had three players with at least 100 career games played. See page 5 for Session s standing on the all-time list of GSU greats. Here is a list of players who have reached the mark this season: Career Games Games at GSU Jordan Session Isaiah Williams SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE Georgia State head coach Ron Hunter announced the signing of two highly-touted high school stars on Nov. 8 as as Nelson Phillips of Warner Robins, Ga., and Kavonte Ivery of Stockbridge, Ga., were signed to National Letters of Intent. Phillips is a 4-star prospect from Warner Robins High School is currently ranked as the No. 5 prospect in Georgia, while Ivery is a star forward out of Stockbridge High School has been ranked as high as the No. 26 prospect in the state of Georgia. Phillips recently earned Region 1-AAAAA Player of the Year honors. HOME SWEET HOME When coach Ron Hunter took over the Panthers, one of the first things he proclaimed was that the GSU Sports Arena would become one of the toughest places in the country. So far, he has been correct. The Panthers are in the comfy confines of the Sports Arena since his arrival. The Panthers have gone 56-8 at home the last four-plus seasons. During that span, Georgia State put together an 18-game winning streak which ranks second-longest in school history. Here are the longest home court winning streaks in school history: to *3rd-longest streak in nation at time to (13-0 during season) to (last 7 of season, first 8 of 15-16) HEAD OF THE CLASS Ron Hunter became the all-time winningest coach at Georgia State last season and entered the year with 123 victories in six seasons. He has shattered every wins mark in school history with the exception of the single-season record of 29 wins held by Charles Lefty Driesell. Hunter surpassed Bob Reinhart for the record on Dec. 10, Ironically, Reinhart, now a scout for the Miami Heat, was in the building when Hunter tied the record. ELITE GROUP When head coach Ron Hunter won his 108th game at GSU last year, he joined an elite group of coaches who are considered the all-time wins leader at multiple schools. Hunter coached IUPUI for 17 years and is still the all-time wins leader for the Jaguars. The list of coaches who lead at multiple schools includes: Ronnie Arrow - Texas A&M-CC and South Alabama Jim Calhoun - Northeastern and Connecticut Leonard Hamilton - Miami (Fla.) and Florida State Lou Henson - New Mexico State and Illinois Ron Hunter - IUPUI and Georgia State Gregg Marshall - Winthrop and Wichita State Johnny Orr - Michigan and Iowa State ON TO THE PROS Under head coach Ron Hunter, the number of former Georgia State players to go on to play professionally has greatly increased. Two years ago, R.J. Hunter was selected with the 28th pick in the first round of the NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics. He was signed by the Chicago Bulls in late October 2016 before spending the spring with the Brooklyn Nets G-League team. He was signed to the Houston Rockets on Jan. 13 after a stint with the Rockets G-League affiliate Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Hunter was named NBA G-League Player of the Week on Dec. 4. Also from two years ago, Ryan Harrow went to play overseas in Greece and is now in Italy. Curtis Washington has already played professionally in Hong Kong before going to Argentina and seeing action in the NBDL. Kevin Ware has gone on to play in Finland. From last year s squad, Jeremy Hollowell was selected by the Erie BayHawks (Atlanta Hawks G-League franchise) in the first round of the draft, while Willie Clayton is playing in Cyprus. SEEN WORLDWIDE For the third-straight year, all Georgia State home games will air live on WatchESPN/ESPN3 this season. With the program s rise, nearly every game will be seen worldwide this year. Of the Panthers 31 games, 25 are currently scheduled to air live. Sam Crenshaw returns for the third year of calling play-byplay for home games. He will once again be joined by former Panther Rodney Truck Turner who will handle color duties. Among the highlights will be the game at Ole Miss (SEC Network+) and at Georgia Southern (ESPN2). Also, for the first time in program history, both games of the MGM Grand Main Event aired on FloHoops.TV. GOING BAREFOOT Coach Ron Hunter once again coached a game barefoot in support of Samaritan s Feet. This year it came on Jan. 20 against Georgia Southern which resulted in an win. The Panthers are 7-0 when Hunter has gone without socks and shoes to raise awareness for the 300 million children around the world without shoes. This marked the 11th straight year Hunter has gone barefoot for a game. As part of his work with Samaritan s Feet, Georgia State has traveled to South Africa (2012), Costa Rica (2014) and the Dominican Republic (2016) to take part in shoe distributions with the organization.

9 Georgia State Men s Basketball Notes (page 9) HEAD COACH RON HUNTER In six seasons, Ron Hunter has changed the national perception of Georgia State; winning 123 games and advancing to the postseason four times.
