Coming off its first road victory of the young season, Penn State will return to the Bryce Jordan Center on Tuesday night looking to extend its win streak to four against in-state opponent Bucknell.
The 3-0 Nittany Lions comfortably beat Georgetown last Thursday on a night where their best player, Lamar Stevens, didn’t even play his best.
But other contributors like Myreon Jones and Myles Dread have picked up the scoring and have allowed Penn State’s offense to be successful even when it has had trouble in the halfcourt.
Although the offense has likely not yet reached its potential, Penn State’s lockdown defense has been amongst the elite to start the 2019-20 campaign and has carried the team to one of its most successful starts in the Pat Chambers era.
