Villanova leads the series against Creighton 17-2. Creighton last bested the Wildcats in 2014, ending the game a whopping 101-80 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
For Villanova, Jalen Brunson has dominated this season’s conversation. At first eclipsed by the shooting prowess of a certain freshman at Oklahoma, the Wildcat junior is now making mainstream waves as a serious contender for National Player of the Year. Averaging 19.2 points per game and leading ‘Nova with 138 assists, Brunson is equally adept at facilitating shots, as well as finishing them on his own.
