Men’s Basketball Preview: UConn vs. Syracuse | 7 p.m., ESPN2

After a promising streak of two wins to begin the season, UConn faces its first test of the year as the Huskies travel to Madison Square Garden to face the Syracuse Orange in the semifinals of the 2K Sports Classic.

With two games in the books, we’re beginning to understand how Dan Hurley envisions the role for each player. Jalen Adams is still leading the way, as he’s gotten off to a great start, scoring 18 points per game.

Alterique Gilbert and Christian Vital provide spacing and respecitvely offer game management and excellent perimeter defense.
