Sun Devils Set to Host California Golden Bears at Desert Financial Arena

As the Arizona State Sun Devils prepare to welcome the California Golden Bears to Desert Financial Arena, fans can anticipate a game where recent trends and home-court advantage could play significant roles. The upcoming Women's Basketball clash is set for an exciting showdown.


California Golden Bears VS Arizona State Sun Devils

The Sun Devils have had a mixed bag of results in their recent outings. Their last game against the Bulldogs showcased their resilience and ability to close out games, as they secured an 80-76 victory. This win was characterized by efficient shooting from the field (49 percent) and dominance in points off turnovers (18). Moreover, their ability to convert from inside the paint was impressive, with 50 points coming from that area.


However, consistency has been a challenge for the Sun Devils. In their encounter with the Wildcats just two days prior to beating the Bulldogs, they suffered a heavy defeat with only 52 points scored against 91. The team struggled particularly from beyond the arc, hitting only 21 percent of three-point attempts and were outperformed in assists turnover ratio.


Another concern for Arizona State came when facing Grand Canyon Antelopes earlier in December; despite playing at home, they fell short by seven points in a low-scoring affair that ended 59-66. Turnovers were once again an issue as both teams gave up possession sixteen times each.


Playing at Desert Financial Arena should provide some level of comfort for Arizona State; however, they must address these inconsistencies if they are to come out on top against California Golden Bears. Fans can expect them to leverage their fast break opportunities and work on improving ball security.


The scheduled game will take place on January 28th at Desert Financial Arena located in Tempe, AZ. Fans looking forward to catching all the action should mark their calendars for this matchup which promises plenty of excitement and competitive basketball.
