UConn point guard Shabazz Napier has expressed frustration multiple times this season, but never as strongly as he did following Saturday's embarrassing loss to Marquette.
"I've got to question a lot of these guys' hearts," said Napier after the Huskies fell to 6-8 in Big East play. "The simple stuff - allowing somebody to get an alley-oop at the end of the game, just quitting with 16 seconds left - it doesn't look like UConn basketball."
So with Monday night's game against Villanova tied in overtime, the clock winding down and the defending national champions' season essentially hanging in the balance, there was no question who was going to have the ball in his hands.
The shot selection may have been questionable, but Napier ultimately backed up his words.
