Trevelin Queen scored the second-most points ever in a G League finals game. Here's how Twitter reacted

Former New Mexico State men's basketball star Trevelin Queen has made waves in the NBA G League this season, but Tuesday night, the former Aggie made a splash. 

Queen scored a career-high 44 points along with seven rebounds and three assists to power the Rio Grande Valley Vipers to a 145-128 win over the Delaware Blue Coats in game one of the G League Finals, sparking ecstatic reactions from the NMSU faithful. His 44 points were the second-most ever scored in a G League Finals game and come one week after he was named this season's G League MVP.

Queen was subbed out after the Vipers took a 20-plus point lead in the final nine minutes, and his team cruised to the finish line. Game two will take place Thursday in Delaware at 7 p.m. Central Time on ESPNews.
