After a year away from playing the game, it’s taking UH Nation time to round back into optimal basketball performance. As the pickup run frequency increases at Life Time and multiple Ultimate Hoops league game nights return, players games are getting tight.

Take Blake Deegan in the Baybrook, TX Open League. Deegen has averaged 23.2 ppg this season, compared to 20.1 ppg in Winter Season. In his last 10 games, Deegan has raised his PPV by $100,000, fueled by his 31-point, eight rebound performance in Franchise’s loss to XXIV Legends in Week 6.

Deegan also competes in Baybrook’s Thursday night Recreational Division, averaging 24.0 ppg this season for Game of Throws. Deegan and Game Of Throws will face Slump Busters in the championship game tonight.

With just 27 games into his UH career, UH pundits are speculating on Deegan’s ceiling. He currently ranks 4th on Baybrook’s All-Time Open Division Scoring List with 370 points. Can he catch league superstar Bradley George (504 points)? That’s a steep ask considering how dynamic George is at scoring, currently averaging 32.6 ppg.
