The 6-8 forward entered the night with 988 career points. He scored eight points through the first 20 minutes, added a pair of freebies early in the second half and then scored in transition at the 14:06 mark to join the exclusive club. He was fouled on the play and canned the freebie to complete the traditional three-point play for his 1,001st career point.

Middlesworth finished the night with 20 points. He currently paces the Foresters in scoring by tossing in 19.4 points per night. He also averages 5.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists.
