UConn soundly defeats Butler, 76-59

HARTFORD, Conn. — There haven’t been many games like it this season, but the UConn men’s basketball team took care of business on Tuesday night without any end-of-game theatrics.

The Huskies produced a commanding victory against Butler, 76-59, at XL Center. The game was initially scheduled for Jan. 1 but had been canceled due to COVID-19 issues within the Huskies’ program.

No. 25 UConn (12-4, 3-2 Big East) had a balanced scoring effort with five players in double-digit points (Adama Sanogo, R.J Cole, Tyler Polley, Andre Jackson, and Jordan Hawkins). Guard Cole scored 17 points, while forward Sanogo added 13 points and 15 rebounds, his fourth straight double-double. Hawkins finished with 14 points.
