The Arizona State Sun Devils snapped their six-game losing streak with a dominant 66-54 victory over Kansas State on Sunday. Jayden Quaintance led the charge with 18 points before leaving the game with a knee injury. Head coach Bobby Hurley expressed concern about the severity of the injury and is awaiting further updates.
The Sun Devils showcased a strong shooting performance, making 9 out of 25 three-pointers. Freshman Amier Ali stood out with three 3s, while the Wildcats struggled from beyond the arc, shooting just 19.2%.
ASU’s defense was a key factor in the win, forcing turnovers and holding K-State to a long field goal drought in the first half. The Sun Devils also capitalized on a crucial 11-2 run in the second half to maintain their lead.
Both teams were missing key players, with ASU playing without BJ Freeman and Kansas State without Coleman Hawkins. Despite ending their losing streak, the Sun Devils have still lost their last seven home games.
ASU will look to build on this win when they face BYU on Wednesday. The game will be broadcasted on 98.7 and the Arizona Sports app.
