In the 91-72 decision over Berry, Baitey totaled 12 points, four boards, four assists and a game-high three steals. He followed that effort by finishing second on the club in scoring with 15 points, hitting seven-of-11 field goal tries, including one trey, while contributing three assists, in the 83-82 triumph. It represented his 17th double-figure scoring outing of the year.

One of two players to have started all 27 of the team's games, Baitey is averaging 11.0 points and 3.7 rebounds per outing.
