Northeastern Huskies

Despite a challenging first half of the season, the Huskies have faced setbacks including the absence of guard Masai Troutman. In their recent loss to Towson, Northeastern struggled with shooting efficiency and turnovers, resulting in a 75-65 defeat. Leading the team is guard Rashad King, who averages 17.1 points and 7.0 rebounds per game. The team is ranked 201st on KenPom and faces challenges in both offensive and defensive efficiency ratings. Offensively, they average 70.3 points per game but struggle with shooting percentages and free throw efficiency. Defensively, they allow 70.3 points per game and have room for improvement in three-point defense. Overall, Northeastern shows promise but must address areas for improvement to achieve success in the rest of the season.
