UConn men’s basketball got plenty of rest while preparing for their first game in a week, and they’re expected to be fresh when they take on Wichita State at Gampel Pavilion on Saturday evening.
UConn (11-8, 2-4 American) recovered from a two-game losing streak with a big win over Tulane on Saturday, which Dan Hurley and his squad hope to extend into a two-game winning streak. A shooting slump combined with an unusually high number of opposing free throws caused the Huskies to falter early in conference play, but their latest victory reversed both trends, giving the team hope their worst days are behind them.
