Larry Sanders had a career high 21-points to go along with his team best 13-boards in the win.  A night after being benched in the 3rd quarter and being held scoreless for the first time in his 281-game career, guard Brandon Jennings added 20-points and 7-assists in 32-minutes.  Head Coach Jim Boylan hopes they can build from this…
