Auburn basketball has taken care of the ball so far this season

The Auburn Tigers are off to an incredible start to the season thanks to great play from the forwards and young guards.

When you have two young guards like Tre Donaldson and Aden Holloway, you can expect a bunch of silly mistakes and turnovers, but these two haven't done that.

Now, a turnover total isn't just about the guards. The whole team has to take care of the basketball, and the Tigers have this season.

So far, Bruce Pearl's squad is only turning over the basketball 10.2 a game, which is good for 29th best in all of college basketball and second best in the SEC behind only Kentucky (9.6).

Last season, Auburn turned the basketball over 12.5 times a game, so they have cut off 2.3 turnovers a game.

Being a team that takes care of the basketball and plays good defense makes it a lot easier to play on the road, and this is what the Auburn Tigers have proven they are so far.

If Auburn keeps the turnover number down throughout SEC play, it is another reason to believe this team can make a deep run in March. The Auburn guards have been incredible so far this season, and these numbers are a great example of why.
