Key Stats:
After a sputtering, disjointed first half (seven turnovers, 4-14 on three-pointers including 0 for it’s first seven from long range), the Bluejays buried SIUE in the second. They scored 60 points, had just four turnovers, made 8-14 of their shots from outside and 18-26 overall, scored 1.54 points per possession, and assisted on 16 of their 18 made baskets. They were more active defensively, too; the Jays had five steals and two blocks after halftime.
Here’s a crazy stat that Jacob Padilla pointed out on Twitter: Creighton now has 113 assists on 198 made baskets through six games.
