Hope Tristen Newton gets back on track

[Rico444]

Tristen can clean some things up but it sure looked like he was getting hammered all night long by X. There were multiple times where he had eye contact with refs after a non-call . Refs weren't buying it.

Yeah he seems to play better when there's less of that physicality. That's why we've seen him look so good in non-conference games.

Didn't we have this same conversation last year around January?

Last January ? Dont remember
Many of us have January 2023 amnesia.

Didn't we have this same conversation last year around January?

We did, and some people who are once again showing up in this thread criticized him all the way through the national championship run too

His 2 threes in a row turned the game around.

True

Tristen is a baller. Guy I want with the ball in his hands when the game is on the line. Will make the shot and/or get to the FT line.. Where he's money.

X game was an outlier for FTs. But he iced the game when we needed them.

But was 5-16 from the floor. He was so up and down all game.

He’s shooting under 30% from the field and from 3 during Big East play.

It’s good he’s still finding ways to be effective in the meantime though. Getting to the FT line definitely helps.
