Georgia basketball news and notes
The Bulldogs made the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive season, something they had not done since the 2001-02 season.
Georgia finished the season strong, winning five of its final six regular-season games, beating Kentucky, Texas and Alabama along the way. Georgia did lose against Ole Miss in the SEC Tournament, falling 76-72.
“(We’re) excited to still be playing,” head coach Mike White said. “Excited to represent University of Georgia in the NCAA Tournament. Continue to love coaching these guys. We’re playing a dangerous team, and we’re pretty dangerous ourselves. We had a great regular season and had a great fight the other day, after a really slow start in the SEC Tournament. We’re just honored to have another chance to see where this thing takes us. Excited for these guys to be able to compete again together.”
Georgia is led in scoring by Jeremiah Wilkinson, who averages 17.0 points per game for the team. Blue Cain (13.3), Kanon Catchings (12.0) and Smurf Millender (11.9) all average double figures in scoring.
Big man Somto Cyril leads the team in rebounding (5.6 per game) and blocks (74).
White is in his fourth season in Athens. Prior to last season, the Bulldogs had not made the NCAA Tournament since 2015.
Georgia will be looking to win its first NCAA Tournament game since 2002. If the Bulldogs were to advance, they would take on the winner of Michigan/UMBC-Howard.
Should Georgia advance to the Sweet 16, it would head to Minneapolis as a part of the Midwest region. This year’s Final Four will be in Indianapolis.
