UConn Hoops (2-0, 0-0) returns to Hartford this Tuesday for what should be another relatively easy game against the Buffalo Bulls (1-1, 0-0). The Huskies have won their first two games against inferior competition looking strong doing so. They've been without three starters in Samson Johnson, Andre Jackson and Jordan Hawkins, who should all be able to return by the end of the calendar year. Within that time frame, it's tough to figure out when they'll be back.

Adama Sanogo has been an absolute force so far this year, averaging 23 points and 10.5 boards through two games. He hit a pair of threes on Friday against BU, an encouraging sign for his ability to stretch the floor. Expect another dominant performance from the preseason Big East POTY Tuesday.
