Northwestern vs Washington Stats
Northwestern Wildcats
Northwestern recently broke a three-game losing streak by defeating USC, improving their record to 13-10 overall and 4-8 in the Big Ten. The Wildcats showed strength on both ends of the court, with Nick Martinelli leading the team in scoring and rebounding. However, they will need to watch for injuries to key players such as Brooks Barnhizer and Jalen Leach. Northwestern's offensive statistics rank them in the bottom half nationally, but they have been solid defensively. Keep an eye on their performance as the season progresses.

The team's offensive and defensive rankings are both in the bottom half nationally, with a power ranking of 263. Washington averages 71.68 points per game but allows 72.27 points. Their shooting percentages are below average, with 43.95% from the field, 67.59% from the free-throw line, and 33.04% from three-point range. Rebounding and turnovers are also areas of concern. Washington's defense struggles to limit opponents' shooting percentages and secure rebounds. Improved contributions from additional players will be essential for future success. forward Luis Kortright may not be available due to injury.
Northwestern Looks to Capitalize on Washington's Declining Performance in Crucial Matchup
Both teams are currently experiencing a decline in performance, with Northwestern winning only two of their last six games and Washington securing just one win in their last eight outings. The loss of Barnhizer is a significant setback for the Wildcats, making it crucial for Leach to step up and support Martinelli on the court. Sprinkle's inaugural season in Seattle mirrors that of his predecessor, Mike Hopkins, in terms of disappointment. The Huskies have struggled to shoot consistently and have a home record of just 8-6 this year. Northwestern has a valuable opportunity to secure their first road victory of the season, especially with Washington's declining performance. Therefore, it is advisable to support the Wildcats in this matchup.
