What to Know

The Washington Huskies are 3-9 against the #4 Arizona Wildcats since January of 2016, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Saturday. The Huskies and Arizona will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 6 p.m. ET at Alaska Airlines Arena. Washington is out to keep their five-game home win streak alive.

Washington made easy work of the Arizona State Sun Devils on Thursday and carried off an 87-64 win. The oddsmakers were on Washington's side, but they didn't give the team enough credit as the margin was unexpectedly wide. They got double-digit scores from four players: guard Terrell Brown Jr. (19), guard PJ Fuller (16), forward Emmitt Matthews Jr. (15), and guard Cole Bajema (12). Cole Bajema's performance made up for a slower game against the Stanford Cardinal on Sunday.

Meanwhile, Arizona didn't have too much trouble with the Washington State Cougars on the road on Thursday as they won 72-60. The Wildcats' guard Bennedict Mathurin did his thing and had 20 points in addition to five rebounds.

The wins brought the Huskies up to 13-9 and Arizona to 21-2. A pair of stats to keep an eye on: Washington has only been able to knock down 40.80% percent of their shots, which is the 20th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. Arizona's defense has more to brag about, as they they have been holding their opponents to a field goal percentage of 36.90%, which places them second in college basketball. So the cards are definitely stacked in their favor.
