Alexander, Towns battle at Summer Jam

MILWAUKEE -- We're just days into the Under Armour Summer Jam presented by NY2LA Sports, and we've already seen a number of high-profile matchups.

Thursday ESPN 100 No. 2 recruit PF Cliff Alexander found himself matched up against another top-10 big man for the second time in as many days, as the power forward locked horns with No. 6 prospect and Kentucky commit Karl Towns Jr. A day after topping No. 10 player Myles Turner and his Texas Select squad, Alexander powered his Mac Irvin Fire squad to 75-67 win over Towns Jr. and Sports U.

These two big bodies fought for low-post position early in the contest, with some serious bumping and good ole-fashioned competition. Alexander, at 6-foot-8 and 230 pounds, and Towns, checking in at 7-foot-1 and 235 pounds, were fierce in competing as the matchup lived up to the hype.

The two went head-to-head on a number of possessions; here's how each player performed in the highly anticipated matchup of elite posts.
