Fresh off a 10-point win over Oklahoma in the first game with their midseason addition, Denzel Mahoney, the Bluejays are headed west for a desert showdown with Arizona State riding a wave of confidence. The Sun Devils, meanwhile, come into the game licking their wounds after an embarrassing 40-point loss to Saint Mary’s. They were obliterated throughout, trailing 51-19 at the half and losing 96-56.
I’ve never seen a box score like the one from the Arizona State/Saint Mary’s game before. Only three ASU players scored a point. One starter scored eight. Another scored five. And Alonzo Verge, Jr scored 43 off the bench.
