Luc, Shipp updates
UCLA coach Ben Howland said Luc Richard Mbah a Moute's ankle swelled after the game and he is going for an MRI today, but the coach added he expected Mbah a Moute to play Thursday.
Howland also said Bruins wing Josh Shipp was treated for strep throat after the game and was taking antibiotics, but is doing better.
Howland added Shipp came in for extra shooting today, and took more than 300 shots.
Shipp needs to start taking more 15-18 foot shots in games (in addition to also attacking the rim more), instead of just jacking up 3-point attempts. Hopefully some of those 300 extra shots were within that mid-range.
Luc should never dribble the ball--every time he dribbles it is either a charge or a travel. Rebound, play defense and put back layups only on the offensive end.
I'm afraid to ask how many of Shipp's shots were air balls...
From the espn report, he hit 91 of 100 FTs . . .
Brian,
Any word on the MRI results?
