After getting left off the All-Big Ten team<\/a>, Maryland sophomore guard Rodney Rice took out his frustration on Illinois Friday in the Big Ten Tournament. He scored a game-high 26 points, draining 7-of-9 three-point attempts to lead the Terrapins into the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rice highlighted his exceptional night with a mind-boggling play in the second half of Maryland’s 88-65 win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rice fell to the floor while curling toward a dribbling hand-off from teammate Derik Queen. Immediately, Rice reached for his calf as play continued. Queen pivoted to a pass to Ja’Kobi Gillespie. Rice got up just as Gillespie passed the ball to him. Then, Rice drained a three<\/a>, drawing a foul in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
