Thomas Welsh has missed the last four UCLA Basketball games due to a bruised knee. He had suited up but remained on the bench in that stretch and it’s a good thing too.
With Welsh having plenty of time to recover, he came back strong and had another epic game which resulted in this fifth double-double of the season as he finished with 20 points and 10 rebounds in the Bruins’ loss to the Ducks.
Welsh had the hot hand to start the game. He had eight points in the first two and a half minutes which was also the first eight points UCLA put on Oregon.
