There’s somehow more where Lonzo Ball and T.J. Leaf came from.

UCLA’s freshman class is preparing to unveil another newbie who’s expected to turn what’s been a dynamic duo into a fearsome threesome.

Ike Anigbogu could make his season debut Thursday night against Portland at Cal State Fullerton’s Titan Gym in the opener of the Wooden Legacy after being sidelined for a month following knee surgery.

Although he hasn’t played a game that counted, Anigbogu is being hailed as the Bruins’ top interior defender. His prowess in putting a stop to things around the basket was on full display during three summer exhibitions in Australia.
