UCLA freshman Zach LaVine has big night against Arizona State

Here were some of his highlights from the game, starting a fast break windmill slam, adding to his long list of highlight reel dunks this season:

LaVine finished the night with 19 points on 8-for-12 shooting, and he hit all three of his three-point attempts. The win improved UCLA to 13-3 on the season.

The lanky freshman has been overlooked all season long. Blame it on an east coast bias or there just being a lot of good freshmen this year, but LaVine deserves to be in the national picture as one of the top “diaper dandies,” to channel Dick Vitale, in the country.
