A key for the Sun Devils in their game against St. John’s on Saturday will be to get a hot start. ASU has shown to play much better when ahead, and a hot start could be a confidence builder for a young team coming off an unexpected two game skid.
In their game against #6 Maryland, the Sun Devils shot a disappointing 28.3 percent from the field. It would be very hard for ASU to beat anyone shooting like that, especially while playing the No. 6 team in the country. Their two losses have come from a lack of shooting and their opponents taking advantage of it.
