They're just an average team in terms of how many three-pointers they shoot.
Their game is not to go out there and fire up 50% of their shots from three-point range.
Look, I said that about St.
John's.
St.
John's went out and did it, but...
I really think UConn is not going to be a team that's going to be looking to take a ton of three-pointers against this Duke team.
Their real game is to get the ball into dangerous spots on the floor, make quality passes, and then make high-quality two-point shots.
They're an outstanding and excellent passing team.
They have the seventh-best assist rate in all of college basketball.
That is a real number to keep an eye on.
This UConn team doesn't look for the first good shot because the first good shot โ
is probably also the first good pass to lead to a better shot, and they're really connected.
These guys know where they are, and they know where they're going to be.
Scott, I'm sure you can speak to this kind of stuff.
They're also a very good offensive rebounding team.
They grab better than 35% of their missed shots.
That's a top 30 offensive rebounding rate.
Let me get to their defense really quick.
Excellent rim protection led by 6'11", Terrace Reed.
