UConn men’s basketball delivered a complete performance in a convincing win over DePaul, 82-61, at Gampel Pavilion Wednesday. The win gave UConn its first Big East victory since 2013’s season-ending triumph against Providence.
The team’s energy throughout the game was the best it's been all year, perhaps the hundreds of fan and former player cutouts peppered through the stands gave them a spark.
The Huskies (4-1, 1-1 Big East) held DePaul to just 23.5% from three-point range after the Blue Demons shot 45.5% in their first two games. UConn shot 42.1% in return, markedly better than the 30.
