No. 4 Arizona Wildcats vs. No. 5 UCLA Bruins

Arizona Wildcats forward Lauri Markkanen (10) shoots over UCLA Bruins forward TJ Leaf (22) during the second half of the No. 4 Arizona Wildcats vs. No. 5 UCLA Bruins men's college basketball game on Feb. 25, 2017, in McKale Center in Tucson, Ariz. UCLA won 77-72. Mike Christy / Arizona Daily Star

Sean Miller says he’s still betting on Markkanen from outside, even though the Finnish 7-footer is 0-for-11 from 3-point range in his last four games and has made only 14.2 percent in his last eight. But he shot well against Colorado in January and the Buffs have no comparable matchup for him.Β
