The freshman forward came off the bench to score a career-high 18 points to go with 16 rebounds in 31 energetic minutes as the Orange pulled away from Pittsburgh late in a 60-55 victory. “I thought he had like 12 (points) and 12 (rebounds) or something, or 12 and 10. “I just see opportunity and go and play,” Sidibe said. Pitt endured a stretch of 8:55 in the first half without a bucket and missed 12 straight shots in the second half to give the Orange time to take control. The 7-foot-2 junior finished with two points and six rebounds in 17 minutes and spent much of the second half watching Sidibe.
