LSU Tigers

The Tigers basketball team has had a difficult season so far, losing five out of their last six games. They have struggled particularly on the road, with a record of 1-5 away from home. One area where they need improvement is their defense, as they have allowed over 85 points in three of their past four games, with Alabama scoring 109 points on them twice. Despite these struggles, the Tigers are still only giving up an average of 74.5 points per game and holding opponents to a shooting percentage of 41.8%. Additionally, LSU's rebounding and turnover differentials are competitive. On the offensive end, the Tigers score an average of 77.7 points per game, and shoot 46.0% from the field. They have a three-point shooting percentage of 35.0% and a free throw percentage of 72.6%. The Tigers are effective at grabbing offensive rebounds but have the highest number of turnovers in the SEC. In terms of overall performance, LSU is ranked 95th in offense and 217th in defense, with a record of 6-10 this season.
