It's hard to come away with any true positive and negatives when you're playing against yourself.
Auburn football coach Hugh Freeze experienced in his preseason camp“We scored 88 points, we shot 50% from three, we shot 55% from the field, had 19 assists and only 11 turnovers,” Pearl told media members ahead of the Bruce, Barkley and Basketball golf event Monday. “That’s the good news.”after it was a weakness for the Tigers last season, when Auburn was 309th in the country in 3-point field goal percentage and averaged just over three made 3-pointers per game.
Junior Florida International transfer Denver Jones and junior Chaney Johnson are two guys Pearl named when asked who consistently wins defensive battles, while senior Chris Moore has cemented himself as one of Auburn’s more physical defenders.Offensively, Pearl said that six or seven guys finished the scrimmage in double figures, while Johni Broome finished with nine points.“I thought you could see that Aden stepped up a little bit. His energy level was really good,” Pearl said.
“I’m going to want Aden to score because that’s what he does really well offensively,” Pearl said. I want him to improve as a passer because it’ll make us better, it’ll make him better. When he doesn’t pass it, it’ll have nothing to do with him being selfish or not giving the ball up, it’s just that he’s better shooting it than he is passing it right now. We’ve got to work on improving that a little bit.
Auburn will also host an exhibition game at Neville Arena against Auburn University-Montgomery on Nov. 1 at 7 p.m.
