Over the past two games, the UConn men’s basketball team has played some of its best basketball but has nothing to show for it other than two losses. Even after losing Tyler Polley for the season with a torn ACL, the Huskies fought back from a nine-point deficit with over a minute left to take No. 23 Wichita State to double overtime, but couldn’t pull out the win. Six days later, UConn hung with - and outplayed for stretches - No. 14 Villanova on the road, but couldn’t string enough big plays together to come out on top.
