Matthew Kredell broke into the Daily News in 1998, working part time
at the paper while going to USC. The basketball team’s Elite Eight
run in 2000-01 was USC’s athletic highlight in his time at the
school, when the football team was stuck in the Paul Hackett-era.
After graduating in 2001, he started writing for the Daily News full
time. He’s in his second year covering USC, which coincides with the
rise of the program. He’ll take credit for the success, though Tim
Floyd may have more to do with it. A third-generation Los Angelean,
he grew up reading the Daily News while at El Camino Real High School
in Woodland Hills.
Wrist has bothered Lewis
Dwight Lewis said his right wrist has bothered him throughout Pac-10 play and was the reason he sat out practice Friday.
The freshman guard said he doesn't remember the exact nonconference game that he sprained the wrist on a fall.
``I landed on the wrist and it's never been right since,'' Lewis said.
After only playing three minutes Thursday against Stanford because the Trojans went big to match up with the Cardinal's 7-foot-tall Lopez twins and then skipping practice Friday, he came off the bench to score a career-high 14 points Saturday against Cal.
``It's more my wrist feels better,'' Lewis said. ``It's been bothering me for a while, but it's getting better and better every day now.''
