Starting Lineups, Injuries, TV Info
The Miami Hurricanes Men’s Basketball Team has its best chance to win against a team in their last game before their road trip ends against the California Golden Bears.
The Hurricanes on paper perform better in every aspect of the game compared to the Bears but the defensive side of the ball has been one of the worst in the country.
The Hurricanes will have to find a way to get going quickly on offense to have a chance in this game. Each of the past few games has started slow and fighting from behind hasn’t been the best answer for the Canes.
If it is a back-and-forth battle then they have a chance to win every day. The Hurricanes are healthy outside of Nijel Pack. There is a growing feeling that he will not be wearing the Orange and Green again.
