Ohio State Basketball: Balance and effort keys to Buckeyes’ fast start

Balanced scoring and total team effort on both ends of the court are the reasons why the Ohio State basketball team is off to a strong start.

Nine players have scored at least 10 points in a game multiple times but only two are averaging in double figures. All but two players in the rotation are scoring at least 7.0 points per game. I would say that’s balanced scoring.

There is constant movement on offense with players setting picks, rotating side to side or cutting down the lane. Those with the ball are constantly looking for the open man if they don’t have a shot which makes all five players a threat to score on any possession.
