The sophomore forward showed his tremendous basketball skills on both sides of the court to hand Arkansas a famous win over Duke. The talented No.2 stepped in and delivered for head coach Eric Musselman in the absence of their leading scorer, Tramon Mark. He finished the night on a double-double with 19 points and 11 rebounds during his 38 minutes on the court. Trevon made a strong statement with this performance following his scoreless outing in Arkansas’ loss against the Tar Heels.

Brazile made significant improvements to his game as he was 6-of-9 in shooting. In addition to this, he successfully landed 4 out of his 7 shots from the three-point range. Apparently, one of his 3-pointers came from the left wing giving the Razorbacks a 12-point lead with just 2:16 left for the final buzzer.
