Scouting the Canes: UConn men’s basketball faces dangerous Miami offense

Two plucky, shot-making guards paired with a mismatch tweener. Sounds a lot like Shabazz Napier, Ryan Boatright, and DeAndre Daniels in 2014, right?

It’s also an apt description for Miami’s Nijel Pack, Isaiah Wong, and Jordan Miller. The Canes have stormed their way to the Final 4 on the backs of this talented trio.

UConn men’s basketball is now the highest-ranked seed left. It’s the No. 1 team in KenPom and outmatches five-seed Miami in nearly every statistical category.

But the Canes’ upsets over top-seed Houston and two-seed Texas should be warning shots for Husky fans.
