UConn G #10 Sam Cassell Jr. puts up a shot against Assumption College at the XL Center in Hartford, CT on November 9, 2014.
While he’ll most likely be in the starting lineup for tonight’s game against the Bryant Bulldogs, UConn Huskies guard Sam Cassell Jr. most likely will come off the bench during the season. And he’s okay with that.
When he came off the bench in both exhibition games, he provided the Huskies with the spark they needed to get things going. And Cassell was a big part of the runs that put Southern Connecticut and Assumption College away.
He averaged 17.5 points, two rebounds and an assist during those two wins.
Watch and listen below as head coach Kevin Ollie, Ryan Boatright and Daniel Hamilton talk about the spark Cassell has provided.
