That was a typical University of Washington versus Arizona State basketball game. Very physical, emotions running high.

It wouldn't surprise us at all if he led our team in rebounding as a freshman. He just has a knack for making big plays but he approaches the game as if he doesn't have a scholarship. He's old school.
