The Gators turned in another poor offensive game in Sunrise on Saturday against South Florida. They shot just 39 percent as a team, including an 8-for-26 performance (30.8 percent) from beyond the arc.
Guard Myreon Jones, who was considered the team’s best shooter entering the season, made just one of seven shots from deep and just three of 13 overall. They turned it over 17 times, including 11 times in the first half, which the Bulls converted into 16 points.
However, thanks to some stifling defense and a couple of timely hot streaks offensively, they were able to overcome those offensive struggles.
