Long before she set foot on the hardwood for the first time as a Bronco, Jayde Christopher’s Boise State basketball teammates were talking her up.
Thirteen games into the 2018-19 season, Christopher has lived up to the hype.
The 5-foot-8 redshirt junior point guard leads the Broncos (11-2, 2-0 MW) with 75 assists and counting entering Saturday’s Mountain West Conference matchup against San Jose State. Tipoff is 1 p.m. at Taco Bell Arena. The game will be streamed online at WatchStadium.com and on the radio on 1350 AM.
Christopher’s 5.77 assists per game average puts her right on pace to contend for the program’s single-season assists record.
