The basket got bigger for Musa Thompson on Tuesday night. Lambert's 6-foot-3, 190 pound wing came off the bench and eclipsed his career high by 15 points to finish with 26, including six 3-pointers, to neutralize the scrappy, sharp-shooting play of upset-minded Centennial in an 84-67 win at home. Centennial, entering the game with a 9-4 record in Region 6-AAAAAA and fighting for playoff positioning, gave the Longhorns scares through multiple stretches.
