ACC basketball...Stanford at Cal? Welcome to college hoops 2024-25! The first ACC game between these two Bay Area enemies is a referendum of sorts for Golden bears HC Mark Madsen, whose far-flung collection of transfers has hinted they might mold into a combative outfit in their new loop. Among the new faces in Berkeley is 6-7 soph wing Andrej Stojakovic, from Stanford, of all places, and scoring at an 18.8 ppg clip. Meanwhile, ex-Grand Canyon PF Jovon Blacksher Jr returned to active duty in Tuesday's tight loss at Mizzou and dished out eight assists. Recent losses to Grand Canyon and Cal Poly raised some questions about Kyle Smith's Stanford, whose offense isn't shooting 3s well enough (just 31%) and relying an awful lot on 7-1 Frenchy Maxime Raynaud (22.3 ppg).
