Newton's third career triple-double helps No. 5 UConn rout Manhattan 90-60

Tristen Newton recorded his third career triple -Friday and No. 5 UConn beat Manhattan 90-60 to win its 23rd consecutive nonconference game

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • Associated Press

Records triple-double Friday Newton accumulated 15 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, 13 assists and two steals across 30 minutes during Friday's 90-60 win over Manhattan.

Impact Newton's all-around production makes him a triple-double threat each time he takes the court -- it's a feat he achieved twice last season in games against Buffalo and Marquette. He's an excellent rebounder despite seeing the majority of his minutes at point guard, as the fifth-year senior has pulled down and impressive 7.8 rpg through six games in 2023-24. Newton is also on pace for career highs in assists (6.8 apg) and shooting percentage (46.6), making him a sleeper Player of the Year candidate and arguably the best fantasy asset in the Big East.

Dishes eight assists Newton had eight points (3-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one block in 38 minutes during Monday's 81-71 win over Texas. He also had three turnovers.

Impact Newton was impactful, but he could not maintain his momentum after dropping 23 points and 11 rebounds versus Indiana on Sunday. However, he set a season high in assists and currently possesses a boosted ceiling with Stephon Castle (knee) out for the rest of November.
