Despite a career-high 26 points from Isaiah Whitehead, the Seton Hall men’s basketball team saw its four-game winning streak come to an end against the Butler Bull- dogs, 81-75, on Wednesday night at the Prudential Center.
This game could have been a big NCAA Tournament resume-booster for SHU.
The team’s star sophomore came storming out of the gate and connected on all eight of his first-half shots, and even had a flashy assist to Angel Delgado for a fast-break dunk. Whitehead went into halftime having hit seven threes en route to 23 first-half points. He was held to three points in the second half.
