UA coach Sean Miller might be trimming minutes up and down his roster to find time for Allonzo Trier, but he’s barely touched Chance Comanche.
Comanche’s efficiency won’t let him. The sophomore center has made 16 of 19 field goals over five games during the past three weekends, while averaging 7.4 points and 2.0 rebounds.
“Chance is giving us quality minutes every game. His shooting percentage is off the charts,” Miller said. “He’s become a dependable low post scorer and he did a very good job helping on the ball screens. A lot of times with (Washington’s Markelle) Fultz it’s never one player (guarding him). Chance was a big part of our success when we played really good defense.”
Comanche is shooting 77.4 percent overall in Pac-12 games, though he hasn’t taken enough shots to qualify for the league lead, where Oregon’s Jordan Bell leads it at 70.1.
