Lee’s week began with a career game in a win on the road against Old Dominion on Thursday night where he recorded a career high 34 points on an incredible 11-for-14 shooting and 7-for-8 from downtown. The Calvert Hall product was also able to add 10 rebounds to give him his third double-double of the season.
Against Old Dominion, Lee put on an show in the first half going 9-for-9 from the field (6-for-6 from three-point range) for 24 points. His eight points in a two minute stretched helped the Dragons jump out to a quick 11-2 lead, and they never looked back winning 81-77.
After the game, Bruiser Flint said simply on the radio on drexeldragons.com with Rob Brooks, “Offensively he was really good today.”
Lee also added a dozen points in the Dragons’ final regular season game of the year against North Carolina Wilmington on Saturday night at the DAC.
