2013–14 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team
After playing four of their first five games outside the continental United States, the Hoyas returned to the Verizon Center for a four-game homestand. A harbinger of roster problems that would plague Georgetown for much of the season came on the homestand's first day, when John Thompson III announced just before the tip-off on November 30 against Lipscomb – the first meeting of the schools – that junior forward Greg Whittington – who had not played since January 8, 2013, because of an academic suspension, missing the final 19 games of the 2012–13 season, and had suffered an injury over the summer of 2013 that required knee surgery and prevented him from playing at all during the 2013-2014 season – had been dismissed from the team for unspecified reasons. The Hoyas swept the homestand to extend their winning streak to six games. During the homestand, D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera had 17 points each against Lipscomb and High Point, and 19 against Elon, while Markel Starks scored 18 against High Point, 12 against Colgate, and 21 against Elon. Joshua Smith scored 14 each against Lipscomb and Colgate and contributed 11 against High Point and 18 in the Elon game. Mikael Hopkins came off the bench to score 13 against Lipscomb and to contribute nine points and eight rebounds in the Colgate game. Against Colgate, Nate Lubick scored in double figures for the first time in the season with 10 points, and he followed up with another 10 points against Elon. Against High Point, the Hoyas tied their season high with 10 three-pointers, but against Elon they allowed the Phoenix to go 8-for-17 in three-pointers, the first time all season they had allowed an opponent to attempt more than seven three-point shots. The Hoyas′ victory over Colgate was their eighth in nine meetings between the schools, but the six-point win was so tight that an annoyed John Thompson III refused to let his players discuss it with the media, saying they had not earned the right to speak about the game.
