Mississippi State guard Josh Hubbard reached 2,000 career points in the Bulldogs’ 98-57 win over Jackson State, becoming the fourth player in program history to reach the milestone and the 29th in SEC history. Hubbard scored 14 points, while Tristan Reed also had 14 and four other Bulldogs reached double figures as Mississippi State improved to 3-0. The Bulldogs took control with a decisive first-half run, shot about 58% from the field and dominated the boards 49-21. Jackson State’s Mike Williams led all scorers with 23 points.
Where do you stand?
How it spread
What each side asserts, disputes — or leaves out entirely.
Whose framing of this story rings truest to you?
Jackson State got handled easily but the Bulldogs look sharp early with that 22 point halftime lead and strong start to the season.
Hubbard reaching 2000 points is a solid achievement for Mississippi State basketball. The team depth with six in double figures should help them later.
