High-scoring junior Daneesha Provo and the Utah women’s basketball team know they have a chance to notch a big win on their home court on Friday night.
The Utes (12-3, 3-1) enters this weekend as the highest-scoring Pac-12 Conference team since the start of conference play (81.3 points per game, 36.6 percent of its 3-pointers). When they host No. 14 UCLA (11-4, 2-2) on Friday at 8 p.m. at the Hunstman Center, it will be a match-up of the the conference’s most productive offensive team against its stingiest defensive team. UCLA also entered this season as the preseason favorite in the Pac-12.
