"Enter Demary, who is cut from the same do-everything cloth as Newton and should help Dan Hurley’s offense get back to its pristine 2023 and 2024 form. Demary’s emergence over Georgia’s final 10 games, including a home win over eventual national champion Florida, was critical to the Bulldogs making their first NCAA Tournament in a decade.

Those are easily the two most prevalent actions in UConn’s offense, accounting for about a third of the Huskies’ total possessions. The way Demary manipulates ball screens — especially if his defender goes under in drop coverage or lazily chases over — is going to be a nightmare to defend within Hurley’s system:
