Zed Key missed the end of Sunday's loss to Maryland with an ankle injury, and if Ohio State's starting center has to miss time, Kyle Young could be crucial down the stretch.
Young remained hot to start things off against Maryland on Sunday, hitting his first four shots in a row to lead Ohio State with eight points in the first half. Even though Young only finished with eight by the end of the upset loss, he still helped Ohio State outperform Maryland in bench scoring by a 22-2 margin.
Those struggles were particularly evident through the final five games of that window, when Young’s field-goal percentage dropped to just 31 percent as he mustered fewer than five points per game for Ohio State. “I think it’s been our Achilles’ heel across the board,” Holtmann said. “We gotta rebound the ball better, for sure.”
