Alex Karaban chose to return to UConn instead of pursuing the NBA, motivated by the goal of winning a national championship. He scored a career-high 27 points in a victory over UCLA, propelling the Huskies to the Sweet 16. Coach Dan Hurley noted that the team becomes dangerous after advancing past the first round. UConn aims for a third national title, having previously won consecutive championships in 2023 and 2024, and is determined to continue their tournament run.
