It will be important for the Bearcats to cut down on costly turnovers and contain San Francisco from creating quality looks from the perimeter.

Players to watch include Cincinnati duo Simas Lukosius and Daniel Skillings Jr, plus forward John Newman III and guard DaVeon Thomas.

Skillings compiled a team-best 12.6 points and 6.3 rebounds per game including 25 points in a Big 12 Tournament win over Kansas last week.
