Stanford Cardinal Set to Host California Golden Bears at Maples Pavilion

As the Stanford Cardinal prepare to welcome the California Golden Bears to Maples Pavilion, fans are anticipating a thrilling encounter. The upcoming game, scheduled for January 29th, will be a showcase of recent trends and performances from the home team.


California Golden Bears VS Stanford Cardinal

The Stanford Cardinal have been on an upward trajectory in their past few games. With victories against teams like the Cougars, Ducks, and Beavers, they've demonstrated resilience and skill on their home court. In their latest match against the Cougars, Stanford secured a win with 72 points over their opponent's 65. Their performance was marked by strong defensive plays resulting in seven blocks and an impressive rebound count of 41 compared to Chicago State's 27.


Offensively, Stanford has shown consistency; they shot at approximately 44 percent from two-point range across these games and maintained field goal percentages in the mid-40s. Their three-point shooting was particularly notable against Chicago State where they hit eight out of nineteen attempts – translating into a solid 42 percent success rate.


Another aspect that stands out is Stanford's ability to distribute the ball effectively as seen with their assist numbers which were highest against Oregon State with fifteen assists. However, turnovers have been a concern; while they managed them well against Oregon State with only nine turnovers, there were twelve each in games versus Chicago State and Oregon.


Maples Pavilion has proven to be a fortress for Stanford this season; fan support combined with familiar surroundings seems to give them an edge over visiting teams. As such, it could play a significant role once again when facing off against California Golden Bears.


Fans can catch this exciting matchup live on ESPNU or attend in person at Maples Pavilion located in Stanford University grounds on January 29th at 7:00 PM Pacific Time (PT).
