Pitt’s basketball team continued its mini-streak with a 76-64 victory over Duquesne in the annual City Game on Friday. That’s the third consecutive victory for a team that started the year 1-4 and it gives the Panthers their first .500 mark of the season.
Offensively, Pitt was pretty solid again. They scored 76 points and shot nearly 55% from the field. That included making nine three-pointers while shooting 41% from beyond the arc. The Panthers also cut way back on the turnovers with only eight tonight.
Defensively, I think it was another work in progress night for the team.
