Adversity is back in the life of Ricky Torres.
In his first season at Wichita State, the junior has made fewer than 36 percent of shots and just two of his 30 three-points attempts. Once a starter for nine straight games, Torres has only seen 32 minutes the past four entering Saturday’s road trip to Connecticut.
If it’s true the game of basketball reflects life, then Torres is experienced in this regard.
Imagine your biological father not being around for your childhood. Imagine seeing two of your brothers spend time in jail. Imagine your mother nearly dying and left permanently disabled because of a surgery gone wrong.
