The fifth-ranked UConn Huskies (8–1) look to keep their momentum rolling as they put a three-game home win streak on the line Tuesday night against the No. 18 Florida Gators (5–3).
Florida enters the matchup licking its wounds after a heartbreaking 67–66 road loss to Duke, dropping the Gators to 5–3 on the season. UConn, meanwhile, has been in strong form, cruising to an 83–59 victory over East Texas A&M to move to 8–1 overall.

UConn vs Florida team news & key performers
UConn Huskies team news
UConn counters with 80.1 points per contest on smooth, efficient shooting, 49.1% from the field and 33.3% from long range. When healthy, Reed leads the charge with 15.5 points and 8.3 rebounds, while Solomon Ball (14.6 ppg) and Alex Karaban (13.4 ppg, nearly six rebounds) give the Huskies a balanced scoring trio. Silas Demary Jr. has stepped into the facilitator role seamlessly, averaging 5.6 assists, and Reibe’s recent rise adds another interior threat. With 17.9 assists per game and a roster full of capable scorers, UConn’s ability to share the wealth makes them a tough cover for any opponent.
Florida Gators team news
Florida is putting up 83.4 points per outing, but the efficiency hasn’t always been there. The Gators shoot 43.2% from the floor and just 27.4% from deep, a sore spot that’s bitten them in a few nail-biters. Haugh sets the tone offensively with 18.6 points per game, while Alex Condon provides a strong complementary punch at 15.1 points and 9.0 rebounds. Boogie Fland has been hot-and-cold but still chips in 12.5 points, and Chinyelu’s work on the boards (11.3 rebounds per game) has been massive. Florida sits second in the nation in rebounding at 47.6 per game, a big reason they manage to hang around even when the outside shots refuse to drop.
