In the UConn Huskies’ 87-71 victory over Tulane, Jalen Adams had one of his best games of the season. He scored 31 points, just three shy of his career high. Adams scored 1.11 points per play (a measure of scoring efficiency that accounts for field goal attempts, free throw attempts and turnovers) while leading the Huskies to a 16 point victory.
The Huskies’ senior guard has scored over one point per play ten times this season, close to the 11 wins UConn has on the season. This is no coincidence, as the Huskies are at their best when Adams plays well.
