ATLANTA (AP) – So much for that theory about poor shooting in domes.
Michigan and Louisville aren’t having any trouble.
The Wolverines took a 38-37 lead into halftime Monday night thanks in part to shooting 50 percent from the field, and 6 of 11 from beyond the arc. Spike Albrecht helped, of course, with his 6-for-7 half and by going 4 for 4 from deep.
The Cardinals aren’t doing shabby, either. They were hitting at a 46-percent clip and were 5 of 8 from beyond the arc, led by a 4-for-4 effort from Luke Hancock.
There’s long been a belief that shooting in domes is more difficult because depth perception is thrown off by the spacious surroundings. That hasn’t been the case tonight.
