The Runnin' Utes lost their first real test of the season as a lack of physicality reared its head.
Sam Houston State Bearkats forward Tristan Ikpe blocks Utah Utes forward Ben Carlson as the University of Utah hosts Sam Houston in NCAA basketball in Salt Lake City on Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022.The University of Utah basketball team is 3-1 following a 65-55 loss to Sam Houston on Thursday night at the Huntsman Center.
It resulted in the Bearkats generating 16 more field goal attempts than Utah as they relentlessly created extra possessions. Even on a night where the Utes shot a better field-goal percentage and three-point percentage, it never felt like they were in control That said, Sam Houston’s leading rebounder was guard Javion May, who is 6-foot-2. So Utah simply got beat in that department too.
He finished with 22 points on 8-of -5 shooting. 10 of those shots came inside the paint. He also had four assists. Down the stretch, Branden Carlson was often on the other end of the screen and role. He couldn’t defend it as he got tired and Utah needs him to be a productive defender. He finished with 31 minutes.The lingering questions over the status of Utah’s best defensive player will be quelled for the moment. Marco Anthony made his season debut after missing the first three games with a heel injury.
