The Auburn Tigers ended the 2022-23 season with a loss in the NCAA Tournament, falling to Houston in the round of 32. As the program begins to transition to the offseason, Auburn Wire will take time to reflect on the season that was by highlighting the accomplishments of this year’s team.
Up next in our series is junior forward [autotag]Chris Moore[/autotag].
After playing in 25 games in each of his last two seasons, Moore saw an increase in his role. He started the first 16 games for the Tigers and appeared in 31 games as a key member of the bench.
He averaged just 3.5 points and 2.1 rebounds per game but he shot an impressive 49.3% from the field and 40.9% from 3-point range. His hustle and defensive effort ensured that he made a bigger impact than the box score indicated and endeared him to Auburn fans.
The best game of his season came in a 72-56 win over Texas Southern when he scored 14 points and grabbed seven rebounds. He scored in double figures two more times in the season, scoring 12 points in a win against Washington and a loss to Memphis.
