UConn was good enough to let Edey get his without changing up their approach too much. As I said earlier, these teams that don't have the talent level of UConn would have been better off just letting him eat in the paint, trapping their guards, pressure them, and try to get them out of their style of play. Giving heavy minutes to the last big on your bench because your other guys got in foul trouble in the first half isn't a winning strategy.
Edey was 15-25 for 37 points and 10 boards, but UConn bigs mostly stayed out of foul trouble. Clingan had 4 fouls, but still played 31 minutes.
