Isaiah Mobley scored 21 points, Boogie Ellis added 19, and No. 20 USC opened Pac-12 play by rolling to a 93-73 victory over Utah.
With a little over two minutes remaining before halftime, USC had largely stifled Utah, but couldn’t quite shake the Utes with a nine-point lead. It was time to Boogie.Boogie Ellis scored 17 points, Joshua Morgan added 13 and No. 24 USC beat St. Joseph’s 70-55 on Thursday night at the Wooden Legacy in Anaheim.
He scored 19 more against the Utes on a flurry of stop-and-pop jumpers and breakaway dunks, further endearing himself to a Trojans crowd that stood to boo relentlessly when he was called for a flop a few minutes into the second half. “I was like, ‘Woah,’” Mobley said. “They didn’t get the championship hangover. I was like, ‘OK, I got better’— if we all can put this together, we can do something special.”
Mobley’s 7-foot-3 wingspan and verticality forced Utes wings into awkward layup attempts around the rim. Sophomore center Joshua Morgan — who coach Andy Enfield called “one of the best defensive big men we’ve had here at USC” after a Nov. 25 win over Saint Joseph’s — notched four resounding blocks on the night.
