Insider: Butler searches for leaders after 2nd straight home loss

INDIANAPOLIS –A snapshot of Butler’s postgame interview table was unintentionally revealing.

No seniors or juniors accompanied coach Chris Holtmann. The one player brought out to answer questions was a freshman, Kamar Baldwin.

The 15th-ranked Bulldogs might have a future All-American in Baldwin, but he can’t be the one to prevent this college basketball season from going from mountaintop to off the cliff.

No. 22 Creighton sank 13 3-pointers, and 7-foot freshman Justin Patton scored 12 of his 15 points in the second half of a 76-67 victory before a sellout crowd of 9,100 Tuesday night at Hinkle Fieldhouse.
