USC’s JuJu Watkins, right, celebrates with teammates McKenzie Forbes and India Otto after they defeated Kansas, 73-55, in a second-round game of the NCAA Tournament on Monday night at the Galen Center.
Forbes made six 3-pointers in all, each seeming more timely than the last, gesturing to the home crowd at one fourth-quarter stall and single-handedly summoning a swell.With USC up by 11, a couple of minutes later, Forbes caught on the wing and let fly from deep.“It’s great to see her shining, especially right now, when the moment’s even – the spotlight’s even brighter,” teammate Kaitlyn Davis said Sunday. “And you can see the whole crowd light up, too, when she hits those shots.
USC’s dream season continues, on to the Sweet 16 for the first time since the early 1990s and the days of Cheryl Miller manning the sideline. The Trojans last went this deep when they reached the Elite Eight in 1994, 10 years after the school won the second of its back-to-back national championships.
