AmberAbyss+FollowIllinois' Mirkovic powers past Penn State with 'Booty Ball'David Mirkovic just changed the game for Illinois basketball. The freshman forward wasn’t just grabbing rebounds—he was the heart of the offense, especially when the Illini needed a creator with Keaton Wagler in foul trouble. His post play, dubbed 'Booty Ball,' let him muscle through defenders and dish out smart passes, keeping the team’s momentum alive. Even on a night when the threes weren’t falling, Mirkovic’s hustle and court vision set the tone. If this is the new normal, Illinois fans have a lot to look forward to. What do you think—can Mirkovic keep this up against the Big Ten’s best? #Sports #IllinoisBasketball #DavidMirkovic00Share
