Murray-Boyles dropped a career-high 35 points on 12-of-16 shooting as the Gamecocks (12-17) won against Arkansas on Saturday. The sophomore forward was almost perfect from the free-throw line with an 11-of-12 clip as he and Nick Pringle did the damage for South Carolina, who won for the second time in three games.

Chloe Kitts and Collin Murray-Boyles both had awesome weeks. Kitts averaged 10.0 points, 9.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 2.5 blocks in two games, while Murray Boyles tallied 31.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.5 steals per game.

Referring to Kitts’ triple-double effort, Murray-Boyles delivered his reaction in his Instagram stories that said:

“Proud is an understatement.”

It feels like the South Carolina men’s basketball forward will devote time cheering for his girlfriend in the postseason. The women’s basketball team, coached by Dawn Staley, ranks second in the SEC standings and has a better chance of making it past the NCAA Tournament being the defending champions.

As for the South Carolina men’s team, they might need a miracle to make it in the SEC Tournament as a lower-seeded team and win a surprise automatic bid to the 2025 NCAA Tournament.
