ATLANTA -- Josh Okogie hasnt needed much time to show coach Josh Pastner that he can score from anywhere on the floor.I feel like if Im able to keep playing hard, Ill be able to keep producing for my team, Okogie said. Coach expressed that to me as well. He said that Ive got to get offensive rebounds and putbacks.Okogie set a Georgia Tech freshman scoring record with 38 points, Ben Lammers added 19 points and 12 rebounds and the Yellow Jackets beat Tulane 82-68 on Saturday night.Quinton Stephens had 14 points and 12 rebounds as the Jackets (4-1) finished a five-game home stand to begin its first season under Pastner.Cameron Reynolds finished with 20 points to lead Tulane (1-5), which is in its first season under former NBA coach Mike Dunleavy.Okogie, who starred at nearby Shiloh High School, surpassed the previous freshman record of 33 points by Mark Price against Virginia in the 1983 ACC tournament and Dion Glover against Seton Hall in the 1998 NIT.Okogie hit 10 of his first 16 shots from the field and had 23 points when his layup pushed the Jackets to a 58-49 lead with 9:35 remaining. Okogies total was the most by a Tech player since Kenny Anderson scored 42 points against Howard in 1991.Beforehand, he had a tendency to take plays off, Pastner said. Now I say that and you look at his numbers as a freshman. Pretty darned good, but he just continues to get better. The reason he scored offensively was that he was at his best defensively.Lammers added four blocks to push his season total to 28 blocks, most in the nation.Georgia Tech led 37-32 at halftime as Stephens combined with Okogie for 21 points and with Lammers for 15 rebounds.Tulane, playing its first road game, missed its first six shots of the second half and trailed 48-32 on Lammers 3-point play.The Green Wave cut the lead to five three times, but Lammers answered with a dunk and a 12-foot turnaround jumper from the baseline that made it 65-58 with 6:13 remaining.I thought we played our worst game of the year, Dunleavey said. We showed no toughness out there. We came out in the second half and we didnt play that great. We had it to a five-point game, and we broke down on a couple of our different basic principles.Okogie followed with a pair of free throws, a dunk on a bounce pass from Lammers and he added a 3-point play for a 16-point lead at the 2:03 mark.Malik Morgan scored 13 points and Kain Harris added 11 for the Green Wave.BIG PICTURETulane: Reynolds began the game leading the Green Wave with a 17.6 scoring average, but he picked up two early fouls and had just two points in 10 minutes of the first half. He missed six of his first eight shots before getting hot in the games closing minutes.Georgia Tech: The 6-foot-10, 227-pound Lammers, a junior, is becoming an inside force under Pastner, crashing the boards multiple times and pulling down five offensive rebounds. Hes bulked up physically and playing more aggressively to become a top shot-blocker.HEATHS SEASON DEBUTThe Jackets had Josh Heath, suspended the first four games for violating team rules, back on the floor. Heath was projected to start at point guard. He played 23 minutes in a backup role to Justin Moore, who had 29. They each dished out five assists.UP NEXTTulane: Visits University of New Orleans on Tuesday.Georgia Tech: Visits Penn State on Tuesday. Willis Reed Jersey .

CLEVELAND -- Josh Gordon isnt going back on the field until he gets a tighter grip on his life.The suspended Cleveland Browns wide receiver, whose talent has been little more than a tease for several years as he battled personal demons, said Thursday hes entering rehab and putting his promising NFL career on hold.Gordon was eligible to return from his latest four-game suspension next week and possibly play against New England on Oct. 9, when Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will return from his Deflategate ban.However, the troubled Gordons future is again uncertain after he chose to seek professional help.Gordon released a statement through the Browns, who have stood by him but may need to move on.After careful thought and deep consideration Ive decided that I need to step away from pursuing my return to the Browns and my football career to enter an in-patient rehabilitation facility, he said.This is the right decision for me and one that I hope will enable me to gain full control of my life and continue on a path to reach my full potential as a person.I appreciate the support of the NFL, NFLPA, the Browns, my teammates, my agent and the community through this extremely challenging process.Gordon has been suspended by the NFL in the past for marijuana and alcohol abuse. The 25-year-old did not indicate why hes seeking treatment.The Browns had been encouraged by the progress Gordon seemed to be making during his suspension, which followed him being banned for one year by Commissioner Roger Goodell. Gordon met with Goodell a few months ago and was being given another chance to get his personal life in order.League spokesman Brian McCarthy would not comment on Gordons status with the Browns.Our concern is with Joshs well-being, he said.Shortly after his statement was released, Gordon posted a tweet, saying he had been under a lot of pressure and stress lately and he needed time for himself.Sometimes you have to do whats best for you, he wrote.Later, he posted another message: See ya soon.However, theres no telling when hell be back or if hell play another game. The Browns have done all they can for him, but with a young teamm, new coaching staff and front office looking toward the future, Gordon may soon be in their past for good.ddddddddddddA Pro Bowl selection in 2013 when he led the league with 1,646 yards receiving, Gordon played in two preseason games after being slowed in training camp with a leg injury.During his suspension, Gordon was only allowed to attend meetings with the Browns. When they practiced, he couldnt join his teammates on the field and he was not permitted to speak with the media.Gordon was usually wearing headphones when he entered the locker room and rarely acknowledged reporters.Sashi Brown, the teams vice president of football operations, said the team has Gordons back.We support Josh in taking this step to seek additional help and treatment, he said. His singular focus must be on his own health. We want nothing more than for Josh to be successful personally and professionally.Gordon has been suspended for 30 of Clevelands past 35 games.Last week, Gordon had to appear in court after a warrant was issued for his arrest in connection with a paternity suit filed by a woman who alleges he is the father of a 1-year-old girl. The warrant was withdrawn after Gordon agreed to take a DNA test.Browns coach Hue Jackson did not comment on Gordons personal issues, but said he was handling his professional matters.He still is doing well, in my opinion, Jackson said. I cant tell you about everything that goes on outside of this building -- but I know in this building, in our meetings with me, with our coaches, with the players, he has been outstanding. Thats what I have to judge on. Now well find out about this other part and know a little bit more about it as we move forward. I have nothing but great things to say about Josh.The Browns had been hoping Gordon could stay clean and get back in uniform. They were looking forward to pairing him up with wide receiver Terrelle Pryor, a combination that may remain nothing more than fantasy.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
