Braylon Mullins will make his preseason debut for UConn men's basketball Tuesday vs. Purdue
Braylon Mullins has missed UConn's preseason games against Syracuse and Michigan State.
UConn's sophomore guard Braylon Mullins is scheduled to make his preseason debut against Purdue in a game that will mark the start of the regular season for the Huskies. Mullins, who missed the Huskies' exhibition contests against Syracuse and Michigan due to an undisclosed injury, will be playing with a minutes restriction for his return.
According to head coach Dan Hurley, this will be a significant opportunity for Mullins to gain valuable experience before the actual regular season begins on Monday against Gardner-Webb. Hurley noted that Mullins has been playing exceptionally well in recent practices. Initially, Hurley considered using Mullins in the game against Michigan State, but ultimately decided to keep him on the bench until he was fully ready.
Mullins was previously named to the Big East All-Freshman team last season, averaging 11.8 points in 31 games.
