Chasing Perfection is back — and with no shortage of basketball to discuss.

First, we break down UConn women’s basketball’s loss to Arkansas, discuss what went wrong and look for positives. After that, we move onto the Huskies’ win over DePaul where we talk about the first-ever women’s basketball broadcast on Fox, Christyn Williams’ statement performance as well as career bests from Paige Bueckers and Evina Westbrook.

We then get into all the injuries striking the team and try to sort out our level of concern for each one. With that, we evaluate the performance of the freshmen against St. John’s and take a close look at Paige Bueckers — who we discover is having one of the best seasons in program history.

Finally, we wrap up by previewing UConn’s upcoming games against Marquette and South Carolina.
