Ace Bailey had a memorable time Rutgers beginnings, but the ending is not optimal.

The five-star freshman played in his team’s 98-81 victory over Monmouth (0-4) Friday, scoring 17 points on 5-of-10 shooting, grabbing six rebounds and blocking two shots in 30 minutes to help the Scarlet Knights (3-0) remain undefeated. But he didn’t finish the game, heading to the locker room with two minutes and 29 seconds left, and didn’t give a postgame interview to local media after his stellar performance.
