Cal Men’s Basketball: Bears Stay Focused and Outlast a Beleaguered Georgia Tech 76-65
Cal entered tonight’s matchup against a destitute Georgia Tech side dusting themselves off from an unexpected loss to a middle of the road Pitt team. The Golden Bears were looking to stay on the bubble of the NCAA tournament, while Tech, who finished last in ACC play, were simply trying to finish out their season with pride. This game marked the beginning of what will prove to be a long road trip for the boys from Berkeley.
Tech came out red hot from 3, thanks to forward Kowacie Reeves, who went 5-8 from behind the arc in the first half, while the entire Cal team was 0-12. His 19 points provided the difference in a first half with long stretches where neither team could put the ball in the basket.
Cal were frustrated early offensively, with Justin Pippen and Dai Dai Ames held scoreless in the first half. Lee Dort proved his offensive value, as the highest scorer for the Bears in the first half, particularly finding success in the paint, and they started the second half off feeding him early inside with some success.
The Bears opened the second half strong, finding ways to run their sets and get more players looks around the basket. Simultaneously, Camden began to find his shot from three, and things began to fall into place for a Cal side that was already having a decent night on the boards.
Georgia Tech could not keep pace once Cal’s offense found a rythm, though they would have to do so without any scoring contributions from Justin Pippen, who went 0-7 from the field, but closed out the night with eight assists and two rebounds.
Ultimately, Tech’s 18 turnovers, and Cal’s persistence gave way to a Bears lead that wouldn’t be overcome. The Yellow Jackets did not have an answer for Lee Dort’s efforts in the paint, and when Dai Dai Ames found his footing on offense, eventually the game was all but finished. Despite a valiant effort, the Yellow Jackets could not maintain an offensive pace or defensive effort to keep up with Cal, who face Wake Forest this Saturday in another must win.

3 Georgia men arrested after attempted break-in at Larsa Pippen’s Pinecrest home
Three men from Georgia are behind bars after police say they tried to break into the home of reality TV star Larsa Pippen in Pinecrest — and it was all caught on camera.
According to the Pinecrest Police Department, the attempted burglary happened Sunday afternoon along Southwest 113th Street.
Surveillance video shows two men trying to force their way into the home. Authorities say Pippen was not inside at the time — but was watching the situation unfold live through her security cameras.
“The resident of the house was not home at the time — was actually watching live on her security cameras,” said Pinecrest Police Chief Jason Cohen.
Police identified the suspects as Elijah Russell, Treison Booker, and Cortez Johnson.
Investigators say after attempting to break into the home, the men fled in a getaway car — but crashed near Southwest 94th Street and 57th Avenue. From there, they ran into the surrounding neighborhood.
“At this point, the occupants of the vehicle scatter into the neighborhood,” Cohen said.
A large police response followed, with assistance from Coral Gables Police Department, South Miami Police Department, and the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities say a K-9 unit tracked down one suspect in a nearby yard, while another ran across 57th Avenue and jumped into a canal. A third suspect was later found hiding in a neighbor’s bushes after a resident called police.
Cohen says he personally chased that suspect, who also jumped a fence and into a canal before being taken into custody.
All three men are now facing burglary charges and remain in custody. Police say each suspect has a prior criminal history.
During a court appearance Monday, a judge noted Russell had an active warrant out of Georgia tied to felony armed robbery and aggravated assault with a weapon.
Prosecutors also cited Cortez Johnson’s prior probation violations, failures to appear, and past convictions. Treison Booker was also described as having a criminal history in Georgia.
Police estimate the damage to the home at around $1,000.
A person close to Pippen told CBS News Miami it has been a difficult few days for her.
No injuries were reported.
Authorities say additional charges could still be filed as the investigation continues.
