The Kansas-Dayton championship game of the Maui Invitational was not lacking for storylines. The better-than-expected Flyers and star Obi Toppin, Devon Dotson and Udoka Azubuike’s offensive explosion, the Flyers’ seeming inability to miss from 3-point range, Bill Self not fouling up three at the end of regulation.
But there was another development that doesn’t seem to be getting as much attention, but was the difference in the game.
Despite the red-hot performance from deep, Dayton is not the best 3-point-shooting team in the country. The Flyers are, however, the best 2-point-shooting team, according to KenPom, hitting 66.
