The move by the Miami Hurricanes boss came a day after criticising college basketball players for having their eyes focused too much on the NBA. It was an interesting move inserting a Freshman over a more experienced player following his comments.
The lineup change could be an attempt by Larranaga to get an inconsistent offense going early. It’s an interesting move. Vasiljevic is the Hurricanes third-leading scorer averaging 10.3 points per game. Walker is fifth on the Hurricanes in scoring at 8.3 points per game.
Vasiljevic has struggled the last two games. The Sophomore from Australia has scored just six points, is one for 11 from the floor and one for nine from three in the last two games.
