Game Grade: A+
The most beautiful stat of the night, in my opinion, was the 23-26 (88%) from the line, and 16-19 in the second half. The starters shot 21-22 from the line, which is really nice to see.
Arizona won the free throw battle 23-1, which was just about the score difference in this one. Making free throws is the most underrated, and most important, part of winning a national championship and it extremely encouraging to see this team shoot the ball like that from the charity stripe. Lets hope they keep it up.
