After an unproductive debut in this event on Thursday, which saw the 6-foot-10 stretch forward finish with just two points (1-7 FG) and five rebounds, he elevated his performance in game two. <strong>Carr went for 19 points (8-14 FG; 3-6 3PT), five rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block in 23 minutes in a tight 82-80 loss to Jani King on Friday night. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In Saturday\u2019s matchup against Portsmouth Partnership, Carr will go up against a familiar face in Tennessee\u2019s Jahmai Mayshack. Also on the other side of the floor are a couple of talented bigs in Oumar Ballo (Indiana) and Great Osobor (Washington). In a fun twist, Carr is teammates with former Louisville guard Chuck Hepburn. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"dMgvANnTyO41xYUuWPjQ6s8tIFolL\">\n<p>Andrew Carr led his team with 19 points in Friday\u2019s final PIT game.

Representatives from every NBA team will be in attendance at the four-day, 12-game event in hopes of finding the next under-the-radar star. Another big-time outing on Saturday could get Carr on more Big Boards. <\/p>\n<p>During his lone season at Kentucky, Carr averaged 10.3 points and 4.7 rebounds per game, shooting 54.4 percent from the floor and 32.4 percent from three. He was limited by back problems during the midstretch of the season but rounded into form as the season drew to a close, scoring in double figures in five of Kentucky\u2019s final eight games. <\/p>\n<p>Across his five-year college career, Carr totaled 1,647 points (including 117 three-pointers) and 827 rebounds across stops at Delaware, Wake Forest, and Kentucky.
