Message: [QUOTE="meyers7, post: 5169521, member: 343"] Wrong, there are lot's of reasons why we couldn't have 3 [B]averaging [/B]20+ points. Many are suggested throughout this thead. Biggest of course is opportunity. All 3 would need to [B]average [/B]30+ minutes a game. Hopefully that won't happen. Now it can happen for a game here and there. Maybe? But [B]averaging[/B]? over the season? Nah, no way. It would be a big struggle to get 2. Especially with the team we have. There have only been 10 times in UCONN history that a player has averaged 20 or more in a season. BUT there was one instance of 2 players in the same season, Samuelson and Collier in 16/17. (and both averaged 30+ minutes a game) (just for clarity, those 10 times were, Bascom (3 times), Collier (2), Bueckers (2), Sales, Moore and Samuelson) And when (if) Griffin gets back, that will take more opportunity away from the 3. I suppose if we had a rash of injuries (even more than we've had) and Bueckers, Fudd and Strong had to play like 35 minutes a game, then sure maybe they all could average 20+ points a game....going forward. But still not sure that would average out for the season. But I would much rather not see that happen. [/QUOTE]
