UCLA just had a huge injury. Jaquez out.
Jaquez is the best all around player for UCLA IMO. Makes tough shots, rebounds at both ends, best defensive player, and can even play PG when Tyger Campbell is in foul trouble or just catching his breath. He's had ankle problems all year, so not playing again until Friday is big. He's a tough kid. Juzang needs to be more consistent especially if Jaquez is slowed down against UNC. Pretty good game today against St. Mary's, pretty much in control the last 28 minutes. I wasn't sure Cronin would be a good fit for UCLA with his style of controlled offense and stressing tough defense but this team is good playing that style.
