Your Morning Dump… Paul Pierce back in Jayhawk country

Pierce3

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

Paul Pierce suited up for the Blue team today in Kansas University's annual "Legends of the Phog" game. Paul joined Nick Collison, Scott Pollard and more in today's action at Allen Fieldhouse. And what a game it was. With 6 seconds left and the game tied, Paul nailed a three-pointer (see video below) to put his Blue team up 111-108. Then, with time expiring, the White team's Mario Chalmers buried a three of his own to tie it at 111 a piece. And that is how the exhibition game ended. KU's official site has Pierce talking about the game during the postgame presser. 

Paul finished with 16 points, 8 boards and 2 assists.Memphis Grizzlies' 2nd-year man Xavier Henry finished with 23 points to lead all-scorers. More pics after the jump. Thanks to Celtkicks for the heads-up.
