Of course ultimately different people guarded Ashworth, but he got going against Spencer.  Hurley admitted afterwards that he was embarrassed by our defense and said that Cam was personally embarrassed & pissed.  There's no reason for you to defend him other than wanting to be right.

In the attached highlight video, Spencer is the primary defender on Ashworth's first 4 shots. After that, yes Hurley switched CAM off him b/c Cam was getting lit up. Too late as he let a streaky shooter get going. Cam died on screens and was 10' plus away from him on a couple of shots. Even the 24' shot where Karaban backed off Ashworth, Cam backed away from his own man (cuz he was 10+ feet away yet again) first & at minimum should have pointed to Alex to cover. Spencer was bad that game, hopefully has learned from it. Its ok, he is still a great offensive player, good team defender* and improving in all facets.

*again things said usually by older Caucasians & only about caucasian student athletes. Here is where UConn loses the lead for good.
