Iowa State’s best player had good reason to be happy. He had just led his team to a rare Big 12 Conference road win. In a 66-65 vic tory, Fizer had done so by freeing him self from a Nebraska defense that had stifled him in years past. Had he ever. Fizer had just complet ed a masterful 26-point, 11-rebound performance that cemented his reputa tion as one of the league’s best. The Cyclone star gave a satisfied laugh to a reporter who questioned his play against NU when compared to years past. “I showed them what was up tonight, didn’t I?” he said. In the opposite locker room, Nebraska Head Coach Danny Nee said he was tired of having to deal with Fizer. “He was clearly the difference in the game tonight,” Nee said. “He’s a great player, and he’s improved every year for them. I hope he goes to the NBA, like, real soon.” Fizer’s improvement was on full dis play during the game. Devaney Center ghosts and Nebraska defenders past had harassed him unmercifully in the Cyclones’ previous two contests in Lincoln. They had done so to the tune of 10-33 shooting from Fizer, including a 6-21 debacle in last year’s matchup, a 59-57 Nebraska victory. On Wednesday night, he fought off a Nebraska defense that increasingly double-teamed him as the night wore on. Their effort was mostly futile, as Fizer repeatedly got the ball in the low post and scored. He missed only seven shots in 18 attempts and got to the line eight times for Iowa State. When he did n’t receive the ball from a teammate, he got it off the backboards, leading all players with 11 rebounds. Not that Fizer’s play was artistic. It was much the opposite. The 6-foot-8, 265-pound power-forward consistently used his bulk to power his way into the lane past smaller defenders. He also was in the middle of all low post action. The game was stopped three times by referees attempting to calm Fizer and Nebraska post players Kimani Ffriend and StefFon Bradford. “Their team is very physical, and we couldn’t be as physical as them in places since this is their home arena, Fizer said. But I tried to mix it up a little bit when I could.” He also pointed to his teammates as a big part of the success, saying that in previous years, Nebraska has focused mostly on him. This year, he said, NU couldn’t because of the other Cyclones. When it came down to it, though, players, coaches and fans alike knew who was getting the ball for Iowa State as the minutes dwindled in the second half. Fizer took six of the Cyclones last ten shots. Back in the Nebraska locker room, point guard Danny Walker said that the Huskers couldn’t stop Fizer. “There’s not too much you can do when he gets going,” Walker said. He’s just so big and strong...” Walker’s voice trailed off. He shook his head. Meanwhile, Iowa State’s best player was in another part of the arena, smiling. Charlotte’s Phills perishes in auto accident CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Charlotte Hornets guard Bobby Phills was speeding in his Porsche after prac tice Wednesday when he lost control, crashed into a car and died instantly. Stunned teammates and Hornets officials gathered at the accident scene less than a mile from the Charlotte Coliseum, where minutes earlier Phills and the other players had been practic ing for Wednesday night’s game with the Chicago Bulls. The game was post poned. Phills, 30, was traveling at a “very high rate of speed” when he collided with a car headed toward the coliseum, police spokesman Keith Bridges said. A mini-van rear-ended the other car. Two people in those vehicles were hospital ized. Witnesses said teammate David Wesley, the Hornets’ starting point guard, also may have been driving too fast in his own Porsche, according to police. Bridges said it will be at least several days before investigators recon struct what happened. Phills lost control on a hilly curve where the posted speed was 45 mph, said Capt. L.E. Blydenburgh, the crash investigator. “The skid marks indicate he was not going in a straight line,” he said. Phills’ car, with the vanity plate “SLAMN,” left skid marks several hun dred feet long and came to rest in one of the opposite lanes, Bridges said. Firefighters had to cut his body from the wreckage.
