|
| | | WASHINGTON: The Huskies have had some struggles the past couple seasons, but have some potential to surprise people in the Pac-12. PG Nigel Williams-Goss (13.4 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 4.4 APG) is an ultra-talented floor leader that will have to become more of a scorer to help make up for the loss of C.J. Wilcox. At 6-foot-3, he has great size for the point, but will have to cut back on the turnovers. His partner in the backcourt is SG Andrew Andrews (12.3 PPG, 3.9 RPG, 2.6 APG), who is another combo guard who can go for 20 points on any given night. Both of these guys are very fast with the ball, and they put a lot of pressure on opposing defenses. The Huskies ranked 189th in the nation in rebounding, but teams can't crash the offensive glass because they have to get back to stop the fast break. For Washington to contend for an NCAA Tournament berth, PF Shawn Kemp Jr. (4.4 PPG, 1.8 RPG, 56% FG, 71% FT) must become more of a presence down low. If he is able to help the team rebound the ball, Washington could make a surprising run in the conference. | | UTAH: The Utes have a realistic chance of making the NCAA Tournament, in large part because of the play of PG Delon Wright (15.5 PPG, 6.8 RPG, 5.3 APG). At 6-foot-5, he has tremendous size for the point guard position. While he is not much of a threat from the outside (22% threes), he is an efficient scorer (56.1% FG). Not only is Wright the focal point on offense, he is an elite defender who will also guard the opponent's best player. In the frontcourt, PF Jordan Loveridge (14.7 PPG, 7.0 RPG, 2.3 APG) is a talented player who followed up a nice freshman season with a solid sophomore campaign. These two provide the Utes with one of the better inside-outside duos in the conference. For Utah to make the Big Dance, SG Brandon Taylor (10.6 PPG, 3.5 APG, 2.1 RPG) and swingman Dakarai Tucker (6.8 PPG, 39% threes) will have to score more to force defenses to pay attention to them. |

*Washington-Utah Preview* =========================
By KEVIN CHROUST STATS Writer
Washington (14-4) at Utah (15-3), 8:30 p.m. EDT
Washington's two-game trip to the Rocky Mountains began with a weak offensive effort against one of the worst teams in the Pac-12.
Few teams have been able to make improvements in Utah.
The 12th-ranked Utes host the Huskies on Sunday night and figure to impose yet another strong defensive effort as they try to remain unbeaten at home.
Utah (15-3, 5-1 Pac-12) beat Washington State 86-64 on Wednesday to improve to 12-0 at home. Those wins have come by an 82.5-55.6 average, and it was the first time any of four conference opponents scored more than 55 points there.
Brandon Taylor had a game-high 18 points, while top scorer Delon Wright (15.1 points per game) added 17.
They don't expect things to remain easy against teams chasing them.
"We're ranked and there is definitely a target on our back now," Taylor said. "... We need to keep being humble because we still have a lot to prove ourselves even though we have had a lot of success so far."
Humility was likely easy to come by considering the game followed a 69-51 loss at Arizona on Jan. 17.
"We got back to our defensive principles," said Taylor, whose team has held opponents under 70 points in 17 straight games since a 90-72 season-opening win against Ball State.
Taylor has also stepped up his offensive game with 14.3 points on 56.3 percent shooting in the last four contests. He'd averaged 9.4 on 44.3 percent in his first 14.
"Brandon is an absolute little warrior," Utes coach Larry Krystowiak said of the 5-foot-10 junior. "Pound-for-pound, I think he'd kick the snot out of anybody on the basketball court. He brings it on a daily basis and he plays the right way."
Things might have been made a little easier for Washington State with Jakob Poeltl (ankle) out of the way down low. The 7-foot freshman missed the game but returned to practice Friday and hasn't been ruled out against the Huskies (14-4, 3-3).
Dallin Bachynski would start again if Poeltl can't go.
Washington has won three straight after a four-game skid, but it can't seem to develop any offensive consistency. Thursday's 52-50 win at Colorado was the latest example as the Huskies shot 36.0 percent - their third game of the last seven under 40.0.
Andrew Andrews hit a buzzer-beating jumper for the win after missing nine of his first 11 shots.
"I'm a perfectionist so I was still worried about all the ones I missed," Andrews said. "I just really haven't gotten into that I made the shot, because I feel like I shot terrible today."
Top scorer Nigel Williams-Goss (14.7) had 16 points and was 7 of 18 for a second straight game, and coach Lorenzo Romar acknowledged that his team's style might not be the most attractive at times.
"Y'all can pick whichever one you want: gutsy, gritty, resilient, that's what our team was tonight," Romar said.
The Huskies have been successful against the Top 25 with wins over then-No. 15 Oklahoma on Dec. 20 and then-No. 13 San Diego State on Dec. 7 to give them three consecutive victories against ranked foes.
On the road, however, they've dropped six straight against ranked opponents dating to January 2009.
Utah won two of three meetings a season ago, all decided by single digits, with Wright averaging 20.3 points on 60.6 percent shooting.
Andrews was limited to a combined five points on 2-of-15 shooting in the Washington losses.
