Hoops quickies
UCLA coach Ben Howland said power forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute went through a full practice today and he is scheduled to go through the public shootaround now. He is listed as a starter.
Mbah a Moute said his ankle was so sore after Saturday's game he couldn't walk Sunday and needed to wear a walking boot.
Howland added that wing Josh Shipp took 50 3-point shots after practice Tuesday, and made 40 of them.
"He looked really good,'' Howland said.



when did shipp's game morph into strictly some kind of 3-point assassin? he should get back to his whole package....
Once he starts hitting his 3's again (and he will), that'll open up his whole package.
