OT: Kyle Lofton out for "multiple weeks"

[Hey Adrien!]

Between Cambridge (Auburn), Baldwin (VCU) and this, the Huskies are getting a lot of help w/ injuries softening our OOC schedule.



Lofton is averaging 17.4p, 5.9a on 39! minutes per game.

Well I guess that evens things out since we'll be missing Martin. Also it was Flannigan who is out, not Cambridge

Damn I hope this doesn't hurt our KenPom.

this is particularly notable because saint bonaventure doesn't really have a bench. after their starters, they have three rotation players who only play around 10 minutes/game. in their loss to northern iowa they only played their bench for 8 minutes TOTAL!

Allen Flanigan is the guy we were lucky was out for Auburn

Here's an example of PT by position. Insane how little the bench is used, but I get it since the starting five is so good (and old).

Also, my bad on the Cambridge/Flanigan mistake.

Michigan State got a lot of help with Whaley out as will the Bonnies and other teams with Tyrese out.

Everyone who plays UConn now is really lucky.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Just checked the box score in yesterday's Buffalo (83 KenPom)/Bonaventure game.

The game got close late in the 2nd half, but the Bonnies won 68-65.

6'4 210 senjor Jaren Holmes took over as the PG (8 assists in 40 minutes) while Wake Forest transfer Quadry Adams (6p, 20 minutes) and Linton Brown (10p, 20 minutes) split time at the 2 guard spot left open w/ Holmes moving over to point.

As expected, Schmidt played a small rotation:

 

[Hey Adrien!]

That was quick.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Need Martin or sanogo back

 

[BonniesFan]

That was quick.

That seems like a stretch.

I was at the Bonnies game Saturday and Lofton was in a boot and visibly limping. It did not look like he could put much weight on his leg/foot, nor was he trying.

Seems like he wants to play in front of his family and friends, but I can't imagine he'd be close to effective.
