Syracuse, N.Y. -- Paschal Chukwu made three straight free throws in Syracuse's 76-60 loss to Kansas Saturday in Miami.
He finished that game 5-for-10 from the line. To put that into perspective, Chukwu was 1-for-6 from the free throw line coming into the Kansas-Syracuse contest. In his brief 13-game career with the Orange, he had been 1-for-15 from the line.
