After watching Arizona dictate the pace of Saturday’s game for the majority of the first ten minutes, UConn’s Shabazz Napier has managed to shift the momentum. Connecticut put together a 9-0 run to come within a one-point margin.
Arizona Vs. Connecticut Score: UConn’s Shabazz Napier Hits Back Vs. Wildcats
With eight minutes left in the second half, Kemba Walker set up Napier for a long three-pointer, which he sank. A moment later, Napier stole the ball and quickly put the ball back up for a lay-up, after which Arizona called a timeout.
The Huskies now lead the Wildcats, 22-20, as the momentum seems to have completely leaned to favor Connecticut at this point. Given the level of athleticism of both teams, don’t be surprised to see plenty of back-and-forth shifts in the tide before the final buzzer.
