This man has been on an absolute tear. In his last 3 games he’s scored 24, 28, and 19 while shooting a combined 32-45 (71.1%) from the floor. This is a friendly match-up against an undersized Arkansas team. The Razorbacks just don’t have a true rim protector. 6’10 Forward Trevon Brazile held that role before he tore his ACL. The “Big” they do have comes off the bench and stands just as tall as Sanogo at 6’9 but is a whopping 20 pounds lighter. They don’t have a player in their starting line-up over 6’7. Adama Sanogo is usually shorter than the opposing Bigs by the way. UConn also reels in 11.6 offensive rebounds per game (6th most) and is led by Sanogo. He has 33 boards in his last 3 games. He’ll get quite a few second chance opportunities in this one. He’s just an absolute beast down below and the Huskies have the shooters outside to keep him free. Knocking down 36.2% of their 3’s this season and 21-47 (46.8%) in their las two games. With the way Arkansas shoots outside (31.3%, 325th) they can’t afford to get bombarded by 3’s. The Tear inside continues.
