What To Watch
No letdown: UConn has played up to top competition, but struggled at the start against mid-majors. Huskies can't afford that against Harvard, a sound fundamental team.
On the rebound: Continuous issue for the Huskies. Harvard's frontcourt is big, but young, a chance for UConn to match up and gain some low-post confidence, perhaps.
Hungry like a Wolf: Enosch Wolf had a breakout game vs. N.C. State. Will he start? Will he play more? Does UConn have an emerging big man?
Guard show: Like UConn, Harvard's offense centers on three guards, its three top scorers. The three-on-three backcourt matchups should be very interesting.
Toys please: UConn's student-athlete advisory committee will be collecting toys for the holidays.
