Andrews scores career-best 47 as Huskies beat Cougars 99-91
After 123 games, Andrews still hadn't reached that mark heading into Wednesday night for the final regular season home game of his career.
[...] when the night was done, Andrews had scored 47 points and led the Huskies to a 99-91 victory over Washington State.
Andrews more than did his part and will finish the regular season as the Pac-12 leader in scoring, capping it by becoming the first Washington player since 1969 to top 40 points.
Andrews made 13 of 22 shots, including five 3-pointers, and was a 16 of 17 at the free-throw line — his only miss coming in his final trip to the line with four seconds left.
Andrews added a driving layup and another step-back jumper to reach 42 points with 8:40 remaining, leading the crowd to chant his name in unison.
Andrews checked out with about eight minutes left to take a breather, but prodded by chants of "We want Drew," from the student section, Andrews was sent back into the game with 4:59 left and the Huskies leading 87-64.
Dejounte Murray added 15 points and the Huskies got a bit of needed momentum heading into next week's Pac-12 tournament in Las Vegas after being swept last week by the Oregon schools.
