Cattoor is rapidly closing in on the Virginia Tech 3PT record of 267. He currently has 261 after his four makes on Wednesday. Just six more to tie, seven to take the cake.
Not much to say about this game. It shouldn’t have been this close, but when you don’t make open shots that’s what happens.
This Weeks Takeaways
Kidd should have more opportunities down the stretch to get involved, something this team needs. Having a team capable of swapping from a perimeter focus to the paint is huge. When one isn’t clicking (like Wednesday) you can swap to the other and vice versa. Versatility is key down the stretch, as one-dimensional teams often get shut down.
