Key Stats:
There was a lot of both good and bad on Saturday. Among the good: Creighton’s bench combined to shoot 7-9, score 20 points, grab 11 boards, and dish out seven assists. Their two points guards, Davion Mintz and Tyler Clement, combined for seven assists and just three turnovers in 36 minutes. They shot 29-52 (55%) as a team, and had 20 assists on 29 made baskets — at 69% of their baskets, the second-best mark of the season. Their 17 fastbreak points were their most in a Big East game this year, Mo Watson or not.
