A different Bradley team ready to poke the Bears

ST. LOUIS — It’s been 38 days since Bradley scored just 37 points at Missouri State, suffering its lowest-scoring game of the season in an 18-point defeat.

Although the Braves were coming off a modest two-game winning streak after opening 0-5 in the Missouri Valley Conference, it seemed to be a bleak moment for the program.

As things turned out, the bottoming out of the offense — which also reached season lows that day in field goals (16), 3-pointers (2), free throws (3), assists and offensive rebounds (3) — seemed to be a watershed moment for the Braves in a good way.
