The Wildcats have been showcasing a strong season, with recent games indicating a trend of offensive prowess and defensive solidity.
In their last game against the Utes, the Wildcats demonstrated an ability to maintain a high shooting percentage from inside the arc, hitting 61 percent of two-point attempts. They also excelled at converting turnovers into points, scoring 19 points off turnovers while managing an assist-turnover ratio just shy of 1. Their fast-break performance was particularly notable with 24 fast break points, hinting at their capability to exploit quick transitions.
