Layden Blocker - College Basketball News & Rumors

Scores 11 versus UConn Blocker posted 11 points (5-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 72-54 loss to UConn.

Impact Blocker led the Blue Demons in scoring Sunday, but it was not near enough to pull an upset win over the red-hot Huskies. He's struggled shooting the ball over the first two Big East games of the season, shooting just 7-25 from the field and 1-7 from three over his last two games. He also did not attempt a single free throw versus UConn or St. John's. He will look to get back on track at Villanova on New Year's Eve.

Strong performance in Tuesday's win Blocker ended with 16 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), two rebounds, six assists and five steals in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 93-62 victory over Gardner-Webb.

Impact Blocker had his best all-around performance of the season Tuesday. He tied a season-high with 16 points and set new season bests in assists (six) and steals (five). He attempted just eight field goals in the game as half of his production came from the free throw line (8-9 FT). His struggles from beyond the arc continued though and he's now hit just four of 19 threes through five games this season.

Scores 16 in Monday's opener Blocker produced 16 points (5-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals across 26 minutes during Monday's 92-62 win over Chicago State.

Impact Blocker had a strong start to the season Monday as he tied for the team lead in points during the blowout win. He shot 50 percent from the field and made all five of his free throw attempts yet made just one of his five attempts from beyond the arc. Blocker is set to be a focal point of the Blue Demons' offense this season, and he proved he is capable of producing in that role during the season opener.
