The 24th-ranked UConn Huskies will go for their second win in a row when they host the Seton Hall Pirates on Wednesday night.
UConn (17-7, 8-5 Big East) is coming off a three-point road victory over the St. John’s Red Storm on Sunday afternoon, following a loss to the Xavier Musketeers. The Huskies are rated inside the top 20 in the latest KenPom ratings, and they’re led by R.J. Cole, who leads the team in points (16.2), assists (4.5) and steals (1.4) per game.
Seton Hall (15-8, 6-7 Big East) lost their last game when they went on the road and lost 73-67 to the Villanova Wildcats on Saturday. The Pirates were without second-leading scorer Bryce Aiken, who hasn’t played in a game in more than a month, and it remains to be seen when he will return.
