Grand Canyon Form & Recent Results

Grand Canyon enters this matchup riding the momentum of a one-game winning streak and boasting victories in four of their last five games. Their most recent game was particularly impressive, a convincing 86-69 win over Boise State on their home court last Friday. Jaden Henley was outstanding in that game, putting up 20 points and dishing out six assists, proving once again why he's such a critical contributor for the Lopes. Nana Owusu-Anane anchored the team under the basket, grabbing seven key rebounds. The Lopes’ performance was remarkable all around: they shot a scorching 59% from the field and were deadly from downtown, making 60% of their three-point attempts. At the free-throw line, they continued their efficiency, sinking 83% of their shots. Despite committing just nine turnovers, they demonstrated dominance throughout the game, holding the lead for 76% of the game.

Looking at the season as a whole, Jaden Henley stands out as Grand Canyon’s top scorer, averaging 17.3 points per game and proving consistently reliable on offense. Right behind him is Makaih Williams, who is contributing 12.9 points per game, providing the Lopes with a steady secondary scoring option. On the boards, Nana Owusu-Anane has been a force, averaging 8.6 rebounds per night to keep possessions alive and disrupt the opposition. Henley also leads the team in assists, averaging 2.6 per game, helping to set the pace and create opportunities for his teammates. Over their last five games, Grand Canyon has averaged 73.6 points, but when playing at home, their fortress where they've built a strong 10-2 record, they push that average up to 80 points. As they prepare to face Air Force, who are still searching for their first conference win, Grand Canyon will look to leverage their current form and impressive home record to keep their successful season rolling on Tuesday night.

Patterson contributed with 5 assists, showing some bright spots for the struggling Falcons.
