Georgetown Hoyas prospects
Georgetown is coming off an incredible run where they won the Big East Tournament to clinch their March Madness spot. Patrick Ewing did a great job, but it’s hard not to feel like the run was a bit fluky. They’ve got good size, but they aren’t really elite at any one particular thing. Three of their top four scorers shoot 40.3 percent or less from the field, and they’re prone to scoring droughts. They’re also sloppy with the ball, turning it over more than 15 times per game. That’s not winning March basketball. A tough matchup with Colorado awaits in the Round of 64.
