@UHCougarMBK sits in third place in the #AmericanHoops standings and it has a lot to do with these three stars
While the backcourt has been solid all year and they are shooting well, Houston's achilles heel is the front court.
Which is why Devin Davis (given his injury) may be the most impactful player of the season.
Houston was 6-1 when Davis got hurt 3 minutes into the Arkansas game. He came back and played 10 minutes in a win at USF but got injured again.
Without him, we lost to Arkansas, Cincy, SMU, Harvard, Memphis and UCF.
He came back in the Temple game, and we are 4-0 with him back in the lineup.
So, the Coogs are 10-1 with Davis healthy the entire game. In those 11 games, he's been our best front court player, averaging 10.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and shooting slightly over 50%.
We are 8-6 without Davis or with him leaving the game early with injury.
He changes the whole front court rotation for us.
