Perhaps Tyrese Martin read his Twitter mentions at halftime and got angry.
After a two-point first half, Martin powered a dominant second half with 25 points to lead the UConn men’s basketball team to a 75-56 Big East Conference win over Butler at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on Thursday night.
Martin’s career-high 27 points led the No. 25 Huskies (13-4, 4-2 Big East) to a sweep of what turned out to be a home-and-home series. UConn had defeated the Bulldogs, 76-59, Tuesday night at the XL Center and has now won three straight conference games.
