KEEP AN EYE ON
Bouk report: James Bouknight took just five shots and scored just five points as a freshman last season in the Huskies’ 61-55 loss at Villanova. He’s a bit of a different player ow.
“They had really good depth without him,” Villanova coach Jay Wright said. “They add him and it makes everybody better and more fresh. His individual talent in transition, especially. I think (Tyrese) Martin and (R.J.) Cole are really good in transition, then you add a third guy in transition that can just go get his shot, whatever the numbers are. The play can break down, and he can just go one-on-one and make a tough shot.”
