The Washington Huskies are the surprise team so far of the 2017-18 Pac-12 basketball season. UW fired longtime coach Lorenzo Romar in the offseason, hired Syracuse assistant Mike Hopkins and are now 17-6 and sitting in third place in the Pac-12 with a 7-3 conference mark.
Most recently, the Huskies downed Arizona in Seattle on a buzzer-beating three-pointer.
We caught up with UW beat writer Percy Allen of the Seattle Times this week to ask him a few questions about Washington as Oregon prepares to face the Huskies Thursday night in Eugene.
