Louisville Basketball: 5 Cards that are trending up after the win over SIU
By Derek Snyder
We take a look at three Louisville basketball players whose stock is trending upward after a win over Southern Illinois on Wednesday.
The Louisville basketball team was able to pick up their eight win in nine games after a win over Southern Illinois on Wednesday night. To many Cardinals fans’ delight, this game was never close, therefore it gave everyone the opportunity to sit back, relax, and be reminded just how bad this team is at shooting the basketball.
All kidding aside, the Cards played as well as we could have expected after a road trip at Grand Canyon last Saturday night.
With that being said, here are the five Cardinals who are trending up after a solid win over SIU:
5. Quentin Snider | Guard | University of Louisville
It was very refreshing to see Snider find his shot from behind the three point line against SIU. As of late, he had been struggling, but hopefully this game will give him some confidence moving forward.
However, I don’t think the issue was a lack of confidence. One of his two 3-pointers came off of a turnover that he shot right off of receiving the pass. Again, it was pretty impressive for a player who has been trying to find his stroke.
We all know that Quentin Snider does a great job on defense and does an even better job of leading his team on the floor. These are two qualities that I wish every Louisville basketball player would have.
With that being said, his jump shot needs to continue to improve if the Cards want any chance of beating Kentucky in a few weeks.
