Eric Dixon finds Tyler Burton backdoor for an ELECTRIC two-handed slam to extend Villanova's lead over DePaul

MARCH 14, 2024 • FOX SPORTS

Non-factor after demotion Burton finished Saturday's 78-54 loss to UConn with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) across 14 minutes.

Impact Burton hadn't exactly been lighting it up offensively of late, averaging 7.0 ppg but still shooting a respectable 45.7 percent over his previous six games entering Saturday. He came off the bench for the first time all season for this tough matchup against the Huskies, but it didn't seem to have the intended effect, as Burton was held to zero counting stats on 0-for-2 shooting. His replacement, Hakim Hart, didn't exactly light it up either, logging just two points on 1-of-5 shooting. It's tough to tell at this point if this will be an alignment that's here to stay.

Subtle but efficient Burton totaled nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 72-62 win over Butler.

Impact Burton chipped in on the glass and scored effectively while Villanova's defense stepped up as a whole. Burton's production aligned with his recent output, which is yielding 7.9 points and 5.1 rebounds across his last seven games.

Used sparingly in victory Burton finished with three points (1-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt) and four rebounds across 18 minutes during Wednesday's 66-65 win over Xavier.

Impact Burton continues to be the starting power forward for Villanova, and while the team improved to 3-0 in Big East play with Wednesday's win, the senior forward matched season lows in both scoring and rebounding while struggling with his shot. Hakim Hart saw a big uptick in minutes as a result of Burton's season-low playing time total, and Hart answered the call with a team-high 14 points off the bench, to go along with five rebounds and three assists. It's a concerning sign for Burton's fantasy managers, who will want to monitor this trend moving forward.
