Alfa is also crushing it when it comes to  steals: he&#8217;s   grabbed at least two every time he&#8217;s  taken the court this season. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/ca\/fresno\/fresno-warriors\/athletes\/tytus-hughes\/?careerid=cjk5o77hvpg66\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Tytus Hughes<\/a> was another key player,  shooting 86% from the field on his way to 12  points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:4\">Roosevelt not only won  on Saturday, but they posted their biggest win  since February 7th (when they won  85-42).

He was instrumental in Roosevelt&#8217;s win,  dropping  a double-double with 22 points and 15  rebounds. The dominant performance also gave  Posas a new career-high in  assists (six). Another player making a difference was <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/ca\/fresno\/roosevelt-rough-riders\/athletes\/anthone-whitfield\/?careerid=5qjiqfik8ll33\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Anthone Whitfield<\/a>, who  posted 13  points and five  boards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:6\"> Roosevelt was working as a unit and  finished the game with 14  assists. The team&#8217;s really been improving in that area: they&#8217;ve now improved their  assist total in three consecutive  matchups.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:7\"> The  win  got Roosevelt back to even at 4-4. As for Fresno, their record now sits at 4-2.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:8\">Rebounding is likely to be a big factor in this contest:  Fresno has been smashing the glass this season,  having  averaged 28.2  rebounds per game.
