LAST TIME OUT
DePaul (12-8, 4-5 BIG EAST) won its fourth-straight contest at home with a Saturday win over Seton Hall, 67-60. As a team, DePaul totaled 10 blocks for the most in a single game since 2023. The Blue Demons opened to a 30-20 halftime lead, their largest in conference play this season, and never let up on its way to the victory.
CJ Gunn led DePaul in scoring for the sixth time this season with 19 points, adding a career-high four blocks along with three rebounds and three assists. The senior is averaging 15.6 points against conference opponents at a 44.9 percent clip, which ranks eighth among all BIG EAST players. NJ Benson pulled down a game-high 10 rebounds for his 20th career double-digit rebound game.
THE SERIES
Georgetown leads the all-time series, 35-17; however, DePaul has won the last four meetings, including a 56-50 win at Wintrust Arena earlier this season. In that game, DePaul's defense was dominant holding Georgetown to an NCAA tying record one second half field goal. Brandon Maclin recorded his first career double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds while Benson tied a program best BIG EAST record with 16 rebounds.
SCOUTING GEORGETOWN
Georgetown (10-10, 2-7 BIG EAST) snapped a six-game skid Saturday with an 81-78 comeback road victory against Providence. The Hoyas were led by KJ Lewis with 26 points, while Vince Iwuchukwu contributed 16 points and four rebounds as the Hoyas mounted a second-half rally.
