BYU's Jimmer Fredette scores 49 points against Arizona

[@Theoiliketrains]

Arizona fans showed a lot of class when they gave Jimmer a standing ovation after he got taken out. Well Played.

[@DBuckley175]

Best tickets I've ever had to a basketball game, and we got Jimmered.

[@UnificationBoard]

I agree, jahe. There is a lot of talk among us BYU fans on how classy Arizona's coach, team and fans all were last night. You guys will be back. Last night was just one of those games. . . .

[@borderline1988]

The impressive thing are that those shots are pure - perfect swishes. This type of skillset is usually not seen in a college player.

[@RonWinter335]

Very classy of the AZ audience to applaud Jimmer when he came out.

[@TheKustomProdigy]

jimmer freddette is one of the greatest players to watch live in all of basketball, i watched him play one year live along with florida kansas, kansas state and him and denny clemente are just outstanding

[@HurleyIntl05]

jimmers my boy, i played against him in high school from across the bridge. man its so awesome when someone from your hometown basically makes it big

[@scerm30]

I was at this game, and I was cracking up on how he was killin us...I had tickets from the Players and I was shooting looks at all of them like someone better stop this dude..foul him hard or something!! lol..by the 2nd half I was cheering for him

[@HurleyIntl05]

man jimmers awesome i played basketball across the bridge from him in south glens falls, ny. hes an awesome kid. he comes home and i play with him and his brother sometimes

[@UnionKid15]

sickk. love jimmer. thanks a lot for posting this video.

[@mgrealdeals]

Jimmer is the REAL deal and will be an unstoppable force in the NBA. Dude is a Beast. Not only a Great shooter but a Relentless SCORER. He has the complete package physically. Blows by the pros the same way he blew by ALL of his college opponents. NO ONE CAN GUARD HIM. He is simply too quick and explosive. He also has a Jordan-like toughness to him. He is a killer. ROY and first team all NBA. Deal with it.

[@Candidly_Aloof]

I've never had another goosebump right after Michael Jordan retired from the game. But after watching this?!?! Damn I'm getting goose bumps AGAIN!!! I'm gonna be watching this guy!

[@NJDevils015]

This was such a great performance by Fredette. BYU has become such a great program under Dave Rose and they do not get the recognition and credit that they deserve because they don't play on ESPN. I just hope they don't draw Texas A&M in the NCAA Tournament this year, that is just a bad matchup for them. Cougars are a fun team to watch, best of luck to them.

[@TheHusker8]

fredette is the best player ever in college basketball history!!!!! hes in beast mode

[@hotdragos]

next star in NBA.good,good luck Fredette.from romania.

[@Invin86rs]

I hope he does really well in the NBA. He deserves it.

[@preditorpro]

Jimmer is FOR REAL. OMG!!! Someone needs to start talking about this kid.

[@samajin1]

the greatest thing about him is that he'll enter the draft with 4 years of college experience. That's the difference maker right there

[@gerrygadrumsee]

jimmer & tyreke will form a nasty backcourt the kings will have crazy offense this year

[@P8ballK0]

You know... My Dad is a HUGE cougar fan. I usually don't like basketball... but Jimmer is freakin' awesome

[@MRcommentator18]

The new future of the NBA

[@DTae1129]

But only time will tell.... we dont know if he will crack under the pressure of NBA talent. He may feel out-matched and may loose his killer instinct to be THAT scorer. Only time will tell. But i will never forget how fun it was to watch him at BYU. Goooooooddaaaaaaaaaamn.

[@idiyamin7]

this guy is the next steve nash wow i watched the game against florida and he scores like nash with handles like a true point guard. he will play at the next level for sure

[@TWAvegas]

JJ is sill a clutch/streaky shooter, perfect bench player for the magic

[@SeattletoAustin]

Lots of Pheonix Suns fanzzz looking for Jimmer to join them. He could learn a lot with Nash's tutelage. He's gonna be a good one.

[@TexasPsychoK]

Alex English was drafted in the second round. Tony Parker was drafted number 28 in the first round. Nash and Stockton were both drafted 16th I believe. It's rare that you have someone with potential but doubts that late in the first round. That's what makes it a good gamble. Just like how Darko Milicic was the antithesis of a good gamble.

[@joop5454]

great video...amazing play by fredette!

[@cmoneyno5]

Jimmer Fredette reminds me of Dan Dickau, Jimmers shooting motion and his knack for hitting seemingly impossible shots is eerily similar to Dickau's.

[@ATZDDD]

@utahgs: Wait, Kirk Hinrich was a 3rd-team all-american who has now started in the NBA for 7 seasons, racking up over 7,000 career points and 3,000 career assists in his first 6 seasons. For a 3rd-team all-american, he turned out just fine in the pros. To give you a clue, the four other 3rd-team all-Americans along with Hinrich were Reece Gains, Brian Cook, Keith Bogans, and Ron Slay. You still think Hinrich didn't turn out well?

[@8579baby]

I don't know why people compare him to JJ Redick. This is coming from someone who absolutely loved Redick and only missed a handful of his games. What makes Fredette different is he has a greater ability to create his own shot. JJ needed someone to help him get a shot. That's why they always lost in the Tourney: make his team try and beat you. Fredette can create his own shot whenever he wants without his teammates...and it pains me to say that.

[@ATZDDD]

Arizona is 16-4, #2 in the Pac-10, on the edge of the top-25. San Diego State is 20-1, #4 in the nation. Jimmer scored 92 points combined against the two of them and BYU won the games by a combined 35 points. What evidence is there that he can't handle quality competition? Everyone can have a bad game here and there, but he's had his best games against the best teams he's faced.

[@CoolHandLuke7]

Jimmer Fredette, #12 to the Utah Jazz. It was meant to be!

[@AnaheimAngels24]

Jimmer just made 47 points look easy against the Utes tonight. Freakin' unbelievable.

[@nsb638]

I beleive this guy will make an NBA roster somewhere. He won't have a big of an impact like he did in college. But theres always room for shooters on any team. He'll be like a JJ Redick on the Magic.

[@Yungcarl2000]

jimmer is out of this world

[@DontGo7]

Jimmer..is..my....HERO

[@adgd62]

there is a high school range,then college range,then NBA range,then half court range,then a jimmer range :) GO BYU!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@SquiggyWigginz]

The new Larry Bird. How tall was Larry and how tall is Jimmer? Would be interesting to know. A true shooter like JImmer cannot be stopped. He's going to go #1 in NBA draft, period.

[@donchills11]

Jimmer and Isaiah both drafted by the kings, Isaiah hits a game winner on Arizona and Jimmer goes for 49 on Arizona.

[@Kakarot_3000]

Best Collegiate scorer since Adam Morrison!!!!!!!

[@Pittforever24]

he's just great

[@Galastin]

I'm a Utah fan. I hate BYU more than any other school. But god damn Fredette. What a player.

[@projectkid916]

i just herd of this guy rite now im watching espn,,, their saying he is the number 1 player in d1 basketball.. He just dropped 47....he averages 27 points a game most in D1..he raw az fucc boy gotta cross and he got range..

[@mgrealdeals]

all those guards are great.. guess time will tell. Anybody know if Fredette's had the chance to go up against some NBA guards in a camp or pick up game? Im real curious to see how effective his crossover and pullup J's would be against the best in the game.

[@JayyyCeeee]

inside range, close range, mid range, 3 pt range and now we have JIMMER RANGE

[@dbp1991]

best college basketball player

[@RyanZPianoGuy]

The thing is Jimmer doesn't just shoot, he's got handles...maybe not yet to the level of steve nash, but better than a lot of guards out there.

[@rt9413]

Being able to shoot from nba 3 nd beyond..is gonna move him up further in the draft

[@SunnyKid975]

"Jammer" Fredette. Heck of a player and shooter.

[@adgd62]

draft him to the JAZZ already!!!!! best player in the whole world!!!!

[@phatbenji94]

New record 52 points!! hooray Jimmer

[@BigBenEightiesMan]

i'd like to see jimmer go to the bulls in the draft. him providing instant offense for when d-rose takes a breather would be a awesome. kind of reminds me of rose's boss...john "pax" paxson.

[@MFeriante]

@Hotty6969 seriously couldn't agree more! Lakers would be lucky to get him. Any NBA team would be crazy to pass up on Jimmer this coming draft.

[@LoganHaun96]

The 3 people that dislike this were the players on the team that got beat....

[@gregxkountz]

jimmer fredette is so sick i cant believe him holy crap

[@hotdragos]

thanks BCObozeman.

[@lukeskywalker2002]

A1 video quality

[@burnitdown2]

1:45 simply a thing of beauty

[@quenquen411]

@techdeckgeek those are 3 of the top 10 NBA 3point made guys... and they are all smoking quick and crafty.. people should wait things out.. I used to hear alot about Novak as well. I don't watch much college bball, but people can't get there hopes up too much about college scorers, especially when they play out of position.

[@kingsfanf0life]

KINGS!!!!!! welcome to sactown jimmer!!

[@MarcusKiner]

@TexasPsychoK I actually watched him in HD, and I'd have to say I was far more impressed. His footwork is beautiful, and he's VERY quick intellectually. I tried to comment on your page, but I couldn't. MGMT is awesome btw.

[@b1squit]

i have never heard anyone say "GOT IT!!" so many times LOL

[@freecountry1]

He got it again!He got it again!He got it again!!!!

[@dbyaface]

Wat song Is in the back round I like it

[@mikehoyt8079]

Welcome to San Antonio, Jimmer!

[@jmorr909]

I haven't had the opportunity to watch him yet but he looks tough. I'm not really sure why everyone is talking about race though, being a good basketball player has nothing to do with race. It about heart and work put into the game. Why limit him to being a white basketball player. He plays basketball and he is good, it doesn't matter how much melanin he has in his skin

[@mgrealdeals]

FYI: Jimmer is not only outplaying Brooks and Thomas ..Jimmer is outplaying every point guard in the NBA . Fredette is Number 1 in scoring in the NBA for point guards(points per 48 minutes) and his Player Effeciency Rating puts him 5th in the NBA for PG's behind CP3, Westbrook and T Parker..in front of Rondo, k Irving and 
Kemba Walker..These are serious numbers and serious company Fredette has
 put himself in not to mention that Fredette is # 1 in the NBA in free throw shooting.

[@ATZDDD]

@utahgs: Sure...maybe you should listen to South Florida coach Stan Heath: "I asked my staff, after we played Kemba [on Dec. 31], which player was harder to guard," Heath said. "We all thought it was close, but we said Fredette, just because his shooting range is a little more extended. And while Kemba is quicker and more explosive, Fredette's changes-of-speed, plus his hops and step-back moves, make him better. And when he elevates to shoot, he really gets up in the air, more than Kemba."

[@ssaannii12]

@LLUC14 are you serious you don't now the name of the song? -.-" remember the name fort minor.

[@MarcusKiner]

Yes he is. He's got better fundamentals, and numbers. Better in my book.

[@cjay2348]

how many threes did that man hit

[@Joeblowesixnine]

dang the final score is a blowout

[@M4CARBINE556]

He looks pretty good I just don't know if he has pro skills. I'm STILL a Cavs fan and it looks like we'll most definitely get the number one pick. I'm thinking Sullenger from Ohio State is the top prospect if he comes out as a freshman but who knows, this guy might make a great pro. I can't really see how people say he plays like Mark Price though.

[@Has1b]

how come fredette isn't in the top 10 on most mock drafts

[@DirtyFaceCapon3]

He has to work on squaring up and staying on balance when he's shooting off the dribble if he wants to be a consistent shooter.Right here, he's in the zone, so it really doesn't matter how you shoot once you become unconscious like that.Problem is, you don't get into those type of zones all that often.The shot at 1:48 shows he has the potential to stop on a dime & square up.Reminds me of Steve Nash in college,but with less court vision & ball handling skills.His jumper could be special like Nash

[@danethepain83]

Hey, where did you get the audio from Greg Wrubell? I love to hear him :)

[@marcumm]

@kirstiepoo24 I forgot the name of the song but its by Fort Minor.

[@jrdnlott6]

Ronnie Price from a no name school is kicking butt in the NBA.

[@shadradoo1]

Jimmer shoots where he gets the ball, and he makes it. everyone is getting Jimmered

[@wruss43]

@Boratbingbing I'm glad to see someone sensible enough to realize there are two definitive sides of this argument. Sure, nobody knows how it's going to play out. I just fully think that he's not going to be skilled enough to survive the nightly battles he will get against elite NBA players. This isn't BYU anymore folks.

[@DreChilly]

I loved watching him allen crabbe and frank the tank take it to Arizona

[@terbattle]

That Jimmer Range!

[@freecountry1]

He got it again

[@idiyamin7]

i like the mark price comparison i would say steve nash though cuz i think mark price had way more quickness and athleticism this guy gets by with pure skill like nash.

[@XYZAffair19]

This Guy must be a basketball God's son

[@gonzotime7224]

crazy video, but do they ALL have to be set to this same song? lets get creative guys...

[@cpbball4587]

"He got it on the right side...than slips on a wet spot" lollll

[@NateKhat24]

greatest rappers alive; iverson,ron artest,mystikkal,shaquille oneal, mark walburg

[@carlmor85]

So does anyone know what happened to Fredette? Did he enter in the draft? and does this anouncer know how to say anything other then "He got it again"?

[@1Stunna2323]

It's just like that Fresh Prince episode: Just pass it to Jimmer.

[@zeejustin6]

@visonary1701 which two were the top 5 picks?

[@rhcp4565]

If it weren't for Jimmer, Arizona would have one by almost 20 points

[@XxBeelzeBubxX]

@erniedawg Lol Jimmer Freddete isn't going to be drafted for his point guard skills or defense but for his offensive ability and the ability to spark a team's offense. He might not be a starter but he can definitely come off the bench for any team and provide floor spacing and offense.

[@jaykarfumos]

three pointer on the way.. GOT IT GOT IT GOT IT GOT IT GOT IT!!! HE GOT IT AGAIN!!

[@BAFA-INC]

where did you get these stats from???

[@alexwarwick4896]

Original Steph

[@lionheart4529]

Ohhhh... Really??? Stfu...

[@alexwarwick4896]

+Eye Of The Lion Damn okay what's your problem

[@bradturner321]

+Eye Of The Lion he was steph b4 steph....He coulda been a beast in the nba. idk how he goes from scoring 50 pts in college games to a d-leaguer

[@lionheart4529]

Bradley Turner "coulda been"? So now he is a has been and hell even Seth is a bigger beast than Jimmer.

[@DuckwalkSupreme]

@ROB6ZOMBIE666 Except for the fact that Bird was a small forward and a power forward, depending on who else was in the game for Boston. The dude averaged 10 rebounds for his career. Bird also scored a hell of a lot of points by posting up. Jimmer's a point guard, I'm pretty sure he won't be getting a large percentage of his points on post ups.

[@liandriunreal]

so what happens when he gets drafted and he has to play on sunday?

[@grantlinscott]

The NBA coaches are afraid to unleash this guy... he could easily be the next Jeremy Lin or better if they let him go off. Hate to say it but he may be the wrong color!

[@KP-ho9un]

Oh geesh stop! I'm black and I'm a huge Jimmer fan. I legit fell in love with his BYU team back when I was young. Jimmer is a great player, but the amount of talent in the NBA is waaaaay higher than NCAA, especially the MWC. Yes, I do believe Jimmer has much to show in the league, he just needs the right coaching and a chance like Lin. But come on...color is not a problem. There are many college stars who get no PT or aren't in the league anymore. It happens...I mean look, where is Johnny Flynn or Sean May? What about Scottie Reynolds? Or Hasheem Thabeet?

[@grantlinscott]

Patrick Pryor You being black and a fan of Jimmer doesn't prove or disprove anything. When Jimmer got 20+ minutes the last 2 times he played he averaged around 20 points and they won both times. How many minutes did he get the game right after those games = ZERO. If that makes any sense to you please let me know.

[@7seanmcguire]

Grant Linscott He doesn't have much size and plays ZERO defense…. that isn't gonna get you much playing time in the NBA.

[@ozzee5094]

Grant Linscott jimmer would have been beyond perfect on the mid 2000s steve nash suns teams.

[@ddavis7561]

+Grant Linscott Nah race has nothing to do with it. He just got released by the Spurs who are known for resurrecting careers and if he couldn't make their roster then it probably isn't meant to be.

[@ATZDDD]

Actually, he averages over 4 assists a game, so I don't know where you get "almost no assists" from. There are less than 50 guys in the whole nation averaging over 5 assists a game, and to get more than 4 when you're scoring 27/game is pretty darn good.
