The Star's Bruce Pascoe breaks down the starting lineups, storylines and stats as the No. 2-ranked Arizona Wildcats face Stanford Thursday night.
Radio: 1290-AM, 107.5-FMG Kerr Kriisa G Michael O’Connell How they match upThe last time: Backup center Oumar Ballo had a breakout night with 21 points, six rebounds and two blocks to lead Arizona to an 85-57 win over Stanford at Maples Pavilion on Jan. 20. Ballo’s efforts were key for the Wildcats in a game when forward Azuolas Tubelis suffered a high ankle sprain and center Christian Koloko played just eight minutes while picking up four fouls and committing three turnovers.
Stanford’s strongest asset continues to be its rebounding. The Cardinal leads the Pac-12 in defensive rebounding percentage and is fourth in offensive rebounding percentage in conference games. Overall, Stanford has outrebounded its opponent in 23 of 28 games — including a 42-39 edge over Arizona on Jan. 20.
Key player : Azuolas TubelisEven before suffering a severe ankle sprain at Stanford on Jan. 20, Tubelis has had tough times against the Cardinal, a team loaded with hybrid forwards he matches up with. Tubelis had four points while leaving after just seven minutes on Jan. 20, and had just 14 combined points in two games against the Cardinal last season.
In the future, fans may only see locker room videos that are officially released by UA or at least livestreams that start after Lloyd addresses the Wildcats. Lloyd told the Wildcats in the locker room that “this is the standard for this program,” and wanted to keep the huddle private. “Don’t gotta say too much youngin,” Terry posted in reply to Stromer’s Instagram post. “We champs ova here.”Losing six of nine games in February ensured Stanford will miss its ninth straight NCAA Tournament this season — barring an unexpected romp through the Pac-12 Tournament next week — though the Cardinal might have had an argument in 2019-20 with a 20-12 record before that season’s event was canceled.
