The Virginia Cavaliers are now riding a six game winning streak and are second in the ACC. With just one game remaining in January, the ‘Hoos are playing probably as well as they have all season. The schedule is getting a bit tougher, beginning with this road rematch against the Syracuse Orange.
In the first matchup at JPJ, Virginia largely picked apart the Orange zone defense, knocking down 12-26 (46.2%) from downtown. They didn’t do as well on the interior, shooting just 40% on twos, but they still averaged 1.09 points per possession.
This is just beautiful basketball.
