Keshad Johnson - Back on track offensively Johnson closed with 20 points (9-11 FG, 2-2 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 29 minutes during Saturday's 92-73 win over Utah.

Impact Johnson recorded 10 or more points in the first 10 games of the season but had been held in check of late, getting limited to single-digit scoring in each of his last four contests. That changed Saturday with his second-best scoring total of the season, as Arizona improved to 3-1 in Pac-12 play. The fifth-year senior has enjoyed statistical career bests in essentially every counting stat upon the move to the faster-tempo Arizona squad, but his efficiency hasn't suffered as a result, as his 57.5 percent mark from the field and 35.9 percent success rate from distance both represent career highs as well.

Pelle Larsson - Facilitation uptick continues Larsson supplied 12 points (3-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 100-81 victory over California.

Impact Larsson has been remarkably consistent as a scorer this season, hitting double-digits in all but one contest en route to 12.6 points per game this season. He's averaging 13.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 35.5 minutes across his last four games. Posting 12-for-22 shooting from beyond the arc this season is an unsustainable clip, but his immense success on limited volume could spur additional shots. Larsson has also logged at least five assists in four of his past six contests, displaying strong chemistry with Oumar Ballo.

Motiejus Krivas - Scores easy 18 in win Krivas notched 18 points (6-7 FG, 6-6 FT), five rebounds and one block across 18 minutes during Friday's 100-81 win over California.

Impact Arizona got off to a 26-5 lead Friday, affording the luxury to split minutes between Krivas and Oumar Ballo (17 points, 11 rebounds, 21 minutes) at center. Krivas moves well for his size, and such movement combined with good offensive flow and a 7-foot-2 frame put Fardaws Aimaq in foul trouble -- leaving hapless California frontcourt depth behind. Krivas showcases good touch and rhythm, but Ballo still commands the lion's share of minutes in a mutually-exclusive pairing.

Caleb Love - Scores at will Love totaled 22 points (7-10 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 26 minutes during Friday's 100-81 victory over California.

Impact Love was perfect from deep, matched his season-high seven free-throw attempts and posterized Gus Larson with a transition dunk en route to leading Arizona in scoring Friday. He has combined for just two assists over his last three games, but Love still owns a career-best 3.6:1.7 AST:TO ratio this season. Love is a known commodity as a volume bomber, although his 39.6 percent field-goal percentage is also a career high.
