per the STrib:
So far this season, there is a basketball payoff to their friendship. Despite the preseason hype about a talented four-player incoming class, through the first month of the season it has been clear: This team still belongs to “the Dres.”
They form a stifling front line of aggressors at the top of coach Richard Pitino’s press, and they push the offense as ballhandlers capable of lighting up the scoreboard. Hollins is the team’s leading scorer at 11.7 points per game, and he’s coming off a season-high 27 points at Wake Forest on Tuesday. Mathieu leads the team in assists and steals.
Their individual performances, more often than not this season, will be indicative of the Gophers’ success.
“They’re our leaders,” freshman guard Nate Mason said. “We go when they go.”
