The Wildcats and Hoosiers will meet for the first time Saturday in Las Vegas.
Bruce Pascoe No. 14 Indiana vs. No. 10 Arizona • MGM Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas • 5:30 p.m. • Ch. 11 • 1290-AM, Varsity NetworkPROBABLE STARTERSARIZONAG Xavier Johnson HOW THEY MATCH UPThe series: Indiana and Arizona have never played each other before.
Inside, next to Jackson-Davis, Race Thompson is a solid defender and rebounder, one of Indiana’s most veteran players along with point guard Xavier Johnson. Thompson has played college basketball since 2018-19 and started since 2020-21 while Johnson has started all but two games he’s played in since 2018-19, counting three seasons at Pittsburgh until he moved to Indiana before last season.
With Jackson-Davis,"they’ll post him up, they'll give him the ball on the perimeter, they'll give him the ball in short-roll situations where he can be a playmaker and decision-maker. He can do a lot with the basketball. He's one of those guys that when he has it, you have to think of him as a guard or wing because of how he can put it on the floor. And then when he has the ball in the post, he's one of the elite back-to-the-basket post scores in the country.
"Even if it's different building, you're still getting used to going to the city and that road trip and I think it really helped us last year," said UA associate head coach Jack Murphy, a Las Vegas native."I just think it's becoming a hub for college basketball, especially on the West Coast.
