Syracuse men’s basketball: what to watch for vs LSU

The Syracuse Orange (4-2) are back from Hawaii and will host the Louisiana State Tigers (4-2) tonight in the JMA Wireless Dome. What do we expect from this ACC/SEC Challenge game?

Kevin: Defending the post

The Tigers are led by transfer center Will Baker. He’s a 6’11” senior averaging 16.3 points and 6.5 rebounds per game. Baker is joined in the starting line-up by 6’10” Jalen Reed who averages over 5 rebounds per game. Syracuse did not defend the interior well in Hawaii, so it’s critical that they are helping on the defensive glass in this one.
