Let’s just blame the overtime game against Georgetown for everything.
There is a crater in Shamorie Ponds’ Big East scoring output after the crushing double overtime loss to Georgetown — a game that was won until missed free throws by St. John’s and a foul on Marcus Derrickson, shooting a three, gave the Hoyas the points they needed to stay within striking distance.
In the following two games, Ponds shot 13% inside the arc, 14% from beyond the arc and scored a total of nine points in two losses (to Creighton at home and at Butler).
