Keys For UConn
For UConn to win tonight they have to do exactly what they did against Florida. Simple enough, right? Wrong, because tonight they are going against what seems to be a team of destiny in the Kentucky Wildcats. UConn fell behind early to Florida in their first Final Four game, but if that happens tonight, there may be no recovering. Kentucky is a squad that can score in bunches, so UConn must adequately protect the paint and not allow the Wildcats to live off the three point line.
On the offensive side of the ball, everything must run through Shabazz Napier. He was strangely off against the Gators, but that is something that won’t fly tonight against the Wildcats. He has to look for his shot early and often, and they also incorporate his teammates. The UConn Huskies will be in very good shape tonight if Napier is on his A-game.
