Tulane Men’s Basketball Welcomes USF on Saturday G R E E N WAV E T O W E L C O M E T H E B U L L S F O R A 3 P. M . T I P O F F STARTING FIVE 1. The Tulane University men’s basketball team, winners of two of its last three games, returns home for the first time in 2022 Saturday afternoon as it plays host to USF. Tulane’s home matchup with USF will mark the Green Wave’s first home game in 11 days. The game will tipoff at 3 p.m. CT inside the Avron B. Fogelman Arena in the Devlin Fieldhouse. 2. The Green Wave enters their meeting with USF in the hopes of bouncing back from a hard-fought 88-80 overtime loss this past Wednesday on the road against ECU. The Green Wave will look to win their first two home league games. The Green Wave have NEVER opened AAC play 2-0 at home since joining the league for the 2014-15 campaign. 3. Prior to its meeting with Memphis, Tulane had each of its three previous games (at Texas A&M - Dec. 14; vs. Grambling - Dec. 18; New Orleans - Dec. 21) cancelled due to COVID-19 protocols. 4. This season, head coach Ron Hunter’s staff welcomes back six letterwinners, six newcomers and three starters, including preseason AllAmerican Athletic Conference honoree Jaylen Forbes. Forbes is one of three players on the team, averaging 10-or-more points per game. Freshman Jalen Cook leads the team with 19.6 points per game - a figure that ranks second in the American Athletic Conference. As a team, Tulane is averaging 73.5 points per game and connecting at a 45.0 percent clip. 5. The Green Wave have won the turnover battle in nine of their 12 games this season. During the 2020-21 campaign, Tulane won the turnover battle in 19 of its 23 contests last season while also forcing opponents into at least 15 mishaps on 11 occasions. During the 2019-20 campaign, the Green Wave committed equal or fewer turnovers than its opponents in 28 of 30 contests while ranking in the top 15 nationally in turnover margin (+4.3). TULANE BY THE NUMBERS 238 ­- Tulane has made at least one 3-point field goal in 238 consecutive games. The last time the Green Wave failed to do so came on Jan. 16, 2014 at home against Louisiana Tech when they went 0-for-14 from outside. 56.3 - Forward Kevin Cross leads the American Athletic Conference in field goal percentage connecting at a 56.3 percent rate from the floor. 35.1 - Jaylen Forbes’ 35.1 minutes per game lead the AAC. 8 - Tulane has faced eight opponents this season that have a .500 record or better. 1 - Tulane’s 37.2 shooting percentage from 3-point range leads the American.

34

Tulane guard Jaylen Forbes has made 34 straight starts, dating back to last season. His 34 straight starts are the most on the team.

8

Eight of Tulane’s 12 games this season have been decided by five points or less. In addition, Tulane is the ONLY team in the American Athletic Conference to have had seven of its games decided by five points or less.
