In their last three games, the Cardinals have shown fluctuating form. A tough loss against Kentucky Wildcats saw them fall 76-95 despite a spirited second-half performance where they outscored their first half by ten points. Their field goal percentage stood at 42 percent, and they struggled from beyond the arc with only 24 percent success in three-pointers.


However, redemption came swiftly as they overpowered Pepperdine Waves with an impressive score of 85-63. The Cardinals showcased an improved field goal percentage of 48 percent and were particularly lethal from three-point range, hitting an outstanding 56 percent of their shots.

The third game brought another setback when facing Arkansas State Red Wolves; despite having home-court advantage, Louisville could not capitalize fully and succumbed with a score of 63-75. Their shooting accuracy dipped again to just 36 percent from the field and was notably poor in three-point attempts at only 13 percent.


The upcoming game against Boston College Eagles is more than just another fixture; it's an opportunity for Louisville to establish consistency and demonstrate resilience away from home. With fluctuating shooting percentages and assist-to-turnover ratios that have seen better days, refining offensive strategies will be crucial for success.
