Time for Stewart and Ross to step up

Demary will be the key tonight. He'll need to provide that spark.

 

[NJHusky]

As expected

 

[jibsey]

I understand completely but it’s such a shame because of the short time in a husky uniform. That said we have plenty of firepower off our bench with many players to step up.

 

[Husky68]

Could this freshman class be so good (sure seems like it), and with limited playing time this year, and good NIL that it makes sense to come back and be top 5 pick next year?

And stay on the court.

I assume this is the case but do we actually know this? I see nothing on Twitter, nothing on Storrs Central, and the official injury report won't come out until 4:30

 

[HungryHu5ky]

Where’s the proof ? 👀
I mean I expect so but I need to see it to actually believe it

 

[Lafayette]

Information on this game is weird right now:
1. Mullins out is expected but we need official word
2. ESPN's Preview states this is the first matchup between us - categorically wrong
3. Edwards - should be out if in a boot this weekend - no confirmation

was in the Courant this am, they reported it pretty matter of factly.....here's a quote from the article:

Ball seemed to have found a way out of his shooting slump with 24 points and five made 3-pointers on Saturday, and the team will need him at his best with freshman Braylon Mullins unavailable after entering concussion protocol.

Assuming Stew starts? We really need him to find some offense and get Ross to come back to giving us 4-6 and useful minutes. AK has played 40, 35, 41, the last three games, and Ball, Mullins, and Demary have also been logging big minutes because we are getting next to nothing from the bench.

Big night for Millender and Paunovic.

I assume he should be out also but I haven’t seen anything definitive & he has a status of GTD
& we all know Hurley plays these things close to the vest until it’s game time

Huh?????

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Huh?????

'Tis a joke

That's pretty vague. We are anticipating that he will be out because of the sanctioned protocol.

Exactly it’s not factually but a highly likely guess but nobody actually knows until close to game time

A couple weeks ago I would have said you were crazy, but if he goes through pre-draft and isn't a top 20 pick I could see that. It seems that with this draft class the top keeps getting more and more stacked

 

[Chin Diesel]

If PC really is down on players and missing their starting PG, I would like this to be a game where Malachi is told to just run, run, run and push the ball. Even if it doesn't directly lead to baskets, wear them down.

 

[auror]

I don't know UConn's specific protocol, but based on the NCAA's template protocol, it would be basically impossible to play 80 hours after an evaluated concussion.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Hope he's ready for Saturday to help stave off what feels like a looming court storming in Omaha.

Mullins took a pretty good shot. Agree with you.. Hurley is not gonna rush him back until he's ready. AK's experience with a concussion last year took some time.

If he is lottery then he has to go but he could absolutely use another year to get stronger and better. Just like Liam who lost most of his season due to that ankle injury which he never really seemed to have recovered from. He would have been better off staying another year.

FWIW.. Recent mock draft had he going to OKC at #11. Playing for UConn alum Coach Mark Daigneault (sp?)

Karaban missed 2 games with his concussion, Samson missed 1.
