Three games into the 2017-18 season, UConn fans are delighted, or at least relieved, to see the Huskies start the season with three wins. They were without Jalen Adams for the first game, and struggled in the second one, but powered through a rocky start in the third to grab a comfortable win. After last year, we’ll take the 3-0 however it comes, but this team does seem to have the pieces to be decently competitive.
Some of the improvements which are evident compared to last year are rebounding—this year’s team is much longer and tougher—and offensive cohesion.
