The Maryland basketball team is suffering through their first rough patch of the season.
With consecutive losses to Penn State and Purdue, one of the biggest issues has been the lack of production from the frontcourt.
In Tuesday’s loss to Penn State, Maryland’s guards were being stifled in a big way. The Terrapins committed 13 turnovers and no guard scored more than 12 points.
In these types of situations, it’s a huge benefit to have a talented frontcourt that can just catch the ball in the low post and go to work. That way, struggles can be minimized due to high percentage shots and even trips to the free throw line.
