PJ Hall (Center) vs. Caleb Love (Guard)
PJ Hall, a center on the team from Clemson, has played at a high level with 18.5 points and 6.4 rebounds per game on average. Not only does his scoring contribution stand out with 1.5 blocks per game as an illustration of his defensive sharpness, but the whole picture of his game shows his numerous strengths. Nevertheless, he is not fully without blemish of 1.7 turnovers on a game and the 32.1 3-point field goal percentage, particularly when his team is playing a good side with a strong outside defense.
The sharp-shooting Arizona’s Caleb Love is one point guard and is credited with an average of 18.1 points per game in addition to 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals. He not only makes his free throws, his FT percentage is at 83.6%, but he also seems to lack field goal percentage of 41.8% and that would require him to get better in scoring. Love’s impact on dictating the game, be it in terms of tempo or his defense could be crucial to our chances against Clemson’s offense.
And if the most important players manage to match up stops within the game, there is a very high chance that either of their performances will prove to be of tremendous importance. Hall’s strength off the backboard and size under the basket versus Love’s sidestep passing and nimble moves in the game eloquently described the look of this battle. Possibly, it would shape the entire game and strategy that is being implemented by both teams.
