Villanova seeks to solidify point guard role amid early season adjustments

Villanova's basketball team is adjusting to a new backcourt with the departure of Acaden Lewis and Bryce Lindsay. Elijah Crawford and Buddy Simmons have shared point guard duties in the early part of the season, with Crawford playing a prominent role, averaging 25.7 minutes and 6.3 assists per game. Simmons has also contributed, though with lower averages. The Wildcats are looking for a consistent leader to stabilize the point guard position as they aim to compete effectively in the Big East. The team's depth includes strong off-ball guards like Tyler Perkins and Jake Fiegen, who is currently shooting at 55.6% from three-point range.
