Washington State visits Cal at 1 p.m. on Pac-12 Networks Saturday with both teams looking to salvage a split out of this week's series. The Cougars are coming off a loss at Stanford on Wednesday where they held a lead late in the second half. Cal was dominated by the Huskies that same night, and now sits at 1-2 in conference play.
As mentioned in the preview linked above, both teams rely heavily on their star scorers. Allen Crabbe shoots nearly 30 percent of the shots while he is on the floor, while Brock Motum uses almost 33 percent of the possessions. The difference in this game will be how well the supporting casts step up on each side.
Cal should have an easier time guarding Motum than WSU has guarding Crabbe. The 6'6 Golden Bear is long, but possesses guard skills. Bone will likely be rotating players as he looks for an answer to slow Crabbe's effectiveness.
