USC basketball is getting ready for the second game in their two-game trip to Washington, with this one coming up against the Washington Huskies.

It's been a rough season for USC, but the Trojans are coming off some of their best basketball of the season. Though the Trojans have lost two of their last four games to Colorado and Washington State, they have played much closer to opponents than they did earlier in the season. Both of their losses have come by just three points each. They've also earned wins against Utah and rival UCLA.

The Trojans are now 11-17 overall and 5-1 in the Pac-12. They'll go up against a Washington squad that's won two of their last three.

How to Watch

USC-Washington will take place earlier than normal, with a matinee matchup at 1 p.m. PST. The game will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Network and will be available to stream on the Fubo TV app.

Predictions

Freshman guard Isaiah Collier has been the standout for the Trojans over their last three games. Collier has put up at least double digit points in each of those games, including at least 24 in two out of the three. The Trojans will need another big game for Collier, as they go up against a Washington team that has been scoring high as of late,

The Huskies have been on a scoring tear. Despite ranking toward the bottom of the Pac-12, they have racked up points, including scoring at least 80 in four of their last five games. They've most recently destroyed what's normally a good UCLA defense by putting up 94 on them.

More

Will fifth year senior guard Boogie Ellis rebound in this game? Despite going off recently, Ellis slowed down against Washington State with just five points, two rebounds and two assists. To compete with Washington, they'll need Ellis' scoring prowess.
