KEY GAME INFORMATION

USC: Last season: 21-13, Lost to Providence in first round of NCAA Tournament.
Nickname: Trojans.
Coach: Andy Enfield.
Conference: Pac-12.
Who's gone: F Darion Clark (transfer), G Julian Jacobs, F Nikola Jovanovic, G Katin Reinhardt (transfer), F Malik Martin (transfer), F Malik Marquetti (transfer).
Who's back: G Jordan McLaughlin. Junior who averaged a team-leading 13.4 minutes playing 32.4 minutes a game last season while sharing point guard duties. With Jacobs leaving school early only to go undrafted, McLaughlin will have to assume the responsibility of running the offense. He's healthy after enduring shoulder problems the last two years. F Bennie Boatwright. With Jovanovic also leaving early and not drafted, Boatwright will play even bigger minutes. He is long, athletic and can shoot from the perimeter. F Chimezie Metu. The 6-foot-11 sophomore has added 15 pounds and will join Boatwright in getting most of the frontcourt minutes. G Elijah Stewart. He shot 42 percent from 3-point range last season.
Who's new: G Shaqquan Aaron. Figures to start after transferring from Louisville and sitting out last season. F Charles Buggs. A graduate transfer who averaged 5.9 points last season at Minnesota. He can play right away. F Harrison Henderson. A 6-10 freshman from Dallas who needs development. G Kurt Karis. A 6-1 junior transfer from Chicago State. G Jonah Mathews. Younger brother of Gonzaga guard Jordan Mathews who can score. G De'Anthony Melton. Freshman who can rebound and defend. F Nick Rakocevic. A 6-10 freshman from Chicago who can run and rebound.
The Skinny: The Trojans lost their second- and third-leading scorers in Jovanovic and Jacobs and had four other players transfer. Three of their four freshmen could play big minutes off the bench. The athleticism on the roster should allow the team to stay close to its average of 80.5 points last season. USC will try to get back to the NCAA Tournament for just the second time since 2011.

ARIZONA: Last season: 25-9, lost to Wichita State in opening round of NCAA Tournament
Nickname: Wildcats
Coach: Sean Miller
Conference: Pac-12
Who's gone: G Gabe York, C Kaleb Tarczewski, F Ryan Anderson, F Mark Tollefsen.
Who's back: G Allonzo Trier was Arizona's third-leading scorer last season at 14.8 points per game, but could be suspended for unspecified reasons. PG Parker Jackson-Cartwright is bigger, stronger and is in his third season under Miller. C Dusan Ristic is one of the most talented offensive big men in the Pac-12 and Miller is expecting him to make big strides at the defensive end. G Kadeem Allen can play point or shooting guard and will provide leadership to a young team. C Chance Comanche will have a bigger role after showing flashes of athleticism last season. F Ray Smith should be a big contributor once he eases back from a second torn ACL.
Who's new: F Lauri Markkanen has the potential to be one of the nation's most impactful freshman. He's an athletic 7-footer who can shoot from the perimeter and has tons of international experience while playing for Finnish national teams. Guards Rawle Alkins and Kobi Simmons are exceptionally athletic and should help give Arizona multiple lineup options.
The Skinny: How long Trier is out ' if he's out at all ' will play a big role early in the season, but expect the Wildcats to compete for the Pac-12 title and a potential deep run in the NCAA Tournament. There is a lot of talent on this team.

PREVIEW

No. 4 Arizona faces USC with huge matchup on horizon

No. 4 Arizona has a huge matchup looming against No. 5 UCLA on Saturday, but the Wildcats can't look that far ahead.

Arizona (25-3, 14-1 Pac-12) will look to maintain its conference lead when it hosts USC (21-6, 8-6) on Thursday night at 10 p.m. ET in Tucson.

Looking ahead, the game against the Bruins will be only the seventh matchup of top-5 teams in league history.

Arizona coach Sean Miller said Monday he expects his team to be at full strength. Starting point guard Kadeem Allen missed two games last week because of a dislocated pinky finger on his right hand. Starting center Dusan Ristic missed a game-and-a-half because of a grade-1 sprained ankle.

"We expect both guys to be able to play Thursday and, in some ways, we expect both guys to be fully functional as well," Miller said.

Arizona entered Wednesday night's games with a one-game lead on Oregon in the Pac-12 race. USC is in fifth, considered to be safely into the NCAA Tournament at the moment.

The Trojans have lost two consecutive games, but their 21-6 start is still the team's best since the 1992 season. The game against Arizona concludes a three-game Pac-12 gauntlet, with USC having lost 80-71 at home to then-No. 7 Oregon and 102-70 at UCLA, which was ranked sixth.

"We were right there halfway through the second half," USC coach Andy Enfield said. "Our defense was not as exceptional as the first time we played them."

Enfield also noted that the Trojans shot less than 40 percent from the field in the recent losses to the Ducks and Bruins, and they made just 37.3 percent in a 73-66 home loss to Arizona on Jan. 19.

USC didn't have power forward Bennie Boatwright because of injury in that game, but Arizona played without guard Allonzo Trier, who missed the first 19 games because of an NCAA suspension.

Trier is averaging 13.9 points in nine games. Boatwright is averaging 17.4 points in the five games since returning from a knee injury. At 6-foot-10, he's a dangerous 3-point shooter.

"He's one of our conference's overall toughest matchups," Miller said.

So, too, is Arizona power forward Lauri Markkanen, who picked up his second Pac-12 Player of the Week honor and some national awards for his performance in a sweep of the Washington road trip. The 7-foot freshman from Finland averaged 22.5 points and 12 rebounds in two games, grabbing a total of 13 offensive boards and scoring closer to the basket.

That has been an emphasis, despite his 45.7 percent accuracy from 3-point range.

"He didn't need to just make a bunch of 3-point shots to have a big offensive night," Miller said. "That is something we are working on to continue to establish."

Markkanen averages a team-high 15.7 points. Trier, wing Rawle Alkins (11.3 points per game), Ristic (11.2) and guard Kobi Simmons (10.8) are also double-digit scorers.

USC has six players averaging at least 9.0 points per game, led by center Chimezie Metu (14.2), Boatwright (14.1) and guard Elijah Stewart (13.4). Guard Jordan McLaughlin averages 12.7 points and 5.1 assists.

USC, though, is just 13 of 49 from 3-point range in its two-game skid.

"We have three of the top seven teams here back-to-back in a week-and-half stretch," Enfield said. "And if you're shooting 20-some percent from the 3-point line, you making it really hard on yourself."
