Made for TV: Banks' 'best game' lifts Alabama A&M past Prairie View

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- This is the stuff of great television. This is the "where'd he come from?" of reality TV.

Justan Banks, averaging 2.2 points per game this season and an occasional source of vexation for the Alabama A&M coaching staff, found himself on national TV Monday night, with the ESPNU broadcast from Elmore Gym.

All Banks did was "have the best game of his career" according to coach Willie Hayes, as the Bulldogs zipped past Prairie View 67-55.

Reading off the stat sheet - 17 points, 7-for-8 shooting, 8 rebounds, 4 blocked shots - "you can't ask for nothing better than that," Hayes continued. Well ... there is one more thing: "Stay humble and continue to do that."
