TIP OFF • Ole Miss faces Saint Joseph’s in the semifinals of the Paradise Jam Sunday. The Rebels knocked off Oral Roberts in the opening round and are 20-8 in regular-season tournament under Andy Kennedy. • This marks Ole Miss’ second trip to the Virgin Islands, as the Rebels posted a 2-1 mark at the 2011 Paradise Jam • The Rebels are a perfect 9-0 all-time record against the Paradise Jam field, including 2-0 versus Saint Joseph’s. • The win over Oral Roberts moved head coach Andy Kennedy into 20th place on the SEC career coaching victo ries list with 215 wins. He is four wins shy of tying Rick Pitino for 19th on the list. • Ole Miss has racked up a 54-9 record in November games under Andy Kennedy, including a 3-0 mark this year. • Last season, head coach Andy Kennedy moved past MSU’s Rick Stansbury for the fourth-most wins by a head coach in their first 10 years after taking over an SEC program. Kennedy trails only Joe B. Hall, of Kentucky, (227), Billy Donovan, of Florida, (226) and Wimp Sanderson, of Alabama, (216) in SEC history. • Junior G Deandre Burnett scored a career-high 41 points in the Rebels’ win over Oral Roberts. His nine 3-point ers made in the game is the second most in school history, one shy of Marshall Henderson’s school record. • Senior F Sebastian Saiz recorded his 10th career double-double with 22 points and a career-best 19 boards in Ole Miss’ come-from-behind victory over UMass. Saiz finished one rebound shy of becoming the first Rebel since Walter Actwood in 1975 to post a 20-point, 20-rebound game. His 19 rebounds is the most by a Rebel since Murphy Holloway pulled down 20 in 2010 and is the most in the SEC this season. • Senior F Sebastian Saiz is the second-leading returning rebounder in the SEC from last season and is the league’s active career leader with 627 rebounds. He also ranks second in the league among active players with 10 career double-doubles and is second in the league this season pulling down 9.3 boards a game. • Sophomore G Terence Davis scored a career-high 19 points in the season opener against UT Martin and is aver aging 15.0 ppg this season after posting just 1.8 ppg as a freshman.
