- Watch these highlights as JuJu Watkins led the No. 7 USC Trojans to a 87-81 victory over the No. 11 Colorado Buffaloes with 42 PTS, 4 REB, 4 AST and 4 STL. Watkins had her 11th 30-point game of the season, passing Cheryl Miller for the most in a season in program history, and her 18 made free throws are the most without a miss in Pac-12 history, passing a 17-17 night by Sabrina Ionescu on Dec. 18, 2018 against Mississippi State.

Everyone talking about Caitlyn Clark. Rightfully so. But Juju Watkins needs to be talked about too.
Juju is better than Caitlyn. Her all-around game is more impressive. Caitlyn may be a deadlier 3 pt shooter, but Juju is bigger, stronger and has a better all-around game.
@@ronwilliams1385 You don't need to pull somebody down to put somebody up lol. You can praise Caitlin while also praising Juju. Caitlin's rightfully getting the media attention she deserves, and so does Juju, so does Angel etc. We don't need to be immature and be like "oh but this girl is better than this girl, that girl" just to prove a useless point.
@@SnitchandSnacksI don’t think he put CC down. Just pointed out the obvious
Think CC is better in the assists department. She’s like #1 or #2 in the nation this season, & her assists total would be greater if her teammates would finish successfully instead of missing wide-open shots, layups or put-ins.
@@TRICH10 "pointed out the obvious" ..... uhm, what was obvious though? Saying Juju's a lot better than Caitlin is like saying LaMelo's a lot better than Steph since Melo can definitely shoot 3's but Steph can't easily rebound like Melo does due to differences in height despite being both guards. It's really a bad comparison which undermines the greatness of both players being compared. Although, let's check these girls' college career stats, and we'll leave it to anyone's subjective opinion on who's better.
Caitlin Clark college career average:
28.3 PPG
8.5 APG
46.6 FG%
38.1 3PT FG%
85.5 FT%
56.3 EFG%
Juu Watkins college career average:
27.5 PPG
3.3 APG
41.7 FG%
34.5 3PT FG%
84.5 FT%
46.4 EFG%
The pull up 3 without the “load up” she’s legit.
What load up are you talking about? She using her legs and arms like a normal shot. If you need to load up you’re shooting too far.
@@HeyUncleAhow I interpreted keno’s comment:
JuJu from a mechanical standpoint stands out in comparison to most if not all women at the same level or higher levels. She shoots more effortless than her counterparts. And her change of speeds, acceleration, explosiveness eclipses her competition.
In regards to how she shoots. Most women have much slower, less fluidity and dramatically lower set points in their shooting mechanics. Ju Ju, has no hitch in her shooting motion.
@@loe-i745 👌🏽yeah she can really shoot. We’ll see in the future; this next round of kids in aau are crazy. My son has been hitting from beyond nba 3 range since 4th grade; daughter 5th. They’re both gymnasts and will be dunking. My daughter is training to beat her and is getting scouted by local and non local high schools while in elementary.
@@HeyUncleA That's super crazy! Congrats to them for putting in the hard work and you for helping them with their vision! Looking forward to see them in their respected leagues!
@@loe-i745 -I agree
Seeing Cheryl Miller at the game makes it even more magical. The USC Alums should be proud of JuJu.
lol most people dont know but yes play like that in front of a legend is magical. You know this girl juju for real cause she has her hair tie up and not lose. She anit playing around.
Man that 83 84 usc teams Paula Pam Cynthia Cheryl they would run through all these teams now
@@Qaulim WOOOOO WEEEEE PURE BALLERS
That jumper is pure!
butter!!!!!!!
Hopefully the WNBA takes advantage of the incoming stars they’re about to receive. It could be revolutionary.
the wnba sucks i guarantee they will find a way to ruin the talent!
thats where they mess up unfortunately
@@eniolaolujimi5769 seems like they "disappear" when they get drafted
@@DavidLee-vp3nrAja Wilson didn’t
unlike the nba where lottery rookies for example get standardly 4 years to develop, the wnba top rooks rarely get that freedom since its overly competitive with only 12 teams & it sucks that the wnba they cant expand to provide that safety blanket for players, which is why they disappear if they not star material right away@@DavidLee-vp3nr
JuJu has made USC a real title threat, best underclassman in the country. This freshman is so valuable that USC is exceeding preseason expectations. And this Colorado team is no slouch, and look what she and the rest of these Trojans did to them
When I saw her play at Sierra Canyon I literally saw Mya Moore all over again💯 JuJu will take it to another level 💫
Maya Moore was on another level its just the WNBA plays system ball so they never get to just unload it's alot of talent in the W though
Naw she's juju can y'all stop with the dumb comparisons
I see it! The movements and the way she gathers herself for the pull up. Great comparison on your part.
@@d.michael372 dumb comparisons these young people work hard to carve their own niche everything ain't got to be a dam comparison
@@anthonytaylor7928I don’t see the crime in being compared to an all time great. Comparison are just reference points. Its ok to be compared to the very best, it happens all the time lol
Her game is crazy impressive
Bro her, Caitlin and Dominique malonga are straight up generational prospects man. The WNBA is gonna be wild
Hannah Hidalgo is a baller too
Have you seen my homegirl Rekkea Jackson of Tennessee?
She will be an All American this year.
@@rjii3264i was just about to type this.
Lol the wnba ia and will always be trash
@@123slasher.16love Rickea’s game and confidence.
JuJu is the best player in the nation she’s doing this against comp and WINNING 🔥🔥🔥🔥
And people in her face..plus double teamed..wow
JUJU IS CRAZY
Until she play usc 😔
It’s not even up for discussion who the best is, but she might be the 2nd best!
dam yall hate that the best female ball player in the world is a white girl. i saw this all last year in comment sections ppl sayin cait isnt the best. if cait wasnt white yall would be saying shes the best ever lmao
Kobe would be proud! 🐍❤
That's what I thought. I was saying to myself "Is she trying to play a Kobe type game?"
@amazing50000 she is too efficient to be trying to play a kobe and she doesn't take bad shots....Kobe did
@@itsampofcourse Well that's even better then.
God I love her game so much. So smooth. That footwork.
After her 6 for 32 shooting performance she bounce back with 42 on 52% shooting yup she is a goat in the making
What you didn’t add about that bad shooting game is what she did defensively how she impacted the game defensively!!!!
@@jarviswilliams4374true true thanks for the reminder
@@jarviswilliams4374She lost. You do know that, right?
Congratulations 🎉. been watching her since she was in high school. She improved her game all around, she Developed so much ;Happy for her!. Can't wait to see her in the wnba!!
Might be the smoothest shooting style I've ever seen in women's basketball. Can't wait to see what she will do over her career. =)
She's doing all this as a freshman and in one of the toughest conferences against ranked opponents
JuJu SMOOVE.
It’s wild to think that the women’s game has more household names than the men’s game.
Soo true they are taking about that on rob parker and Chris broussard show yesterday some dude called in and named a lot of women's college basketball players. Heck I know a lot of them too
this specific program you mean? you cant mean in general i hope
@@ld7207there aren’t any prospects in men’s college that have the pull of juju, Caitlyn and angel Reese
Really enjoyed her taking over the game and being the best player this year all around baller
JuJu on that beat!
Yes, she is!!!
Def rooting for Juju. Seems like. Great young lady with a ton of potential,
She Dominates!! 🔥🔥
This is gonna make me watch wnba
Gonna have to wait 3 more years to watch because she has to be 22 to get in the WNBA and she's only 19.
I've been watching Wnba since 2000. Women's college ball will always be better and more exciting. I actually feel bad for the talent that goes to the Wnba. They give out free tickets for Wnba games.
Her and it’s plenty that are coming out soon, plus the two powerhouse teams waiting in the wnba will make it interesting to see how they match up
@@standground8284not true
Lighting it up out there.
Go JuJu!
I gotta start watching her.
Ju Ju is the truth for real..WOW
JUJU ON DA BEAT 🏀
Beautiful form
This woman is almost unguardable most of the time and makes the right pass the rest of the time. Sensational!
that big body fast break at 0:20 I ain’t ever seen that in women’s hoops and I love it 🥰
Judea has done it again.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
*”JuJu the goat” 🐐 - MELL DUNEY 616*
Im here to see what this young lady does in the future. Phenomenal athlete
All I know is that Cheryl Miller and I have been waiting a long time for USC to get a her type player. For real though Juju has always been that good. Can’t wait to see how far she goes
Ju Ju is special,she will turn pro in few year her game is lethal
This young woman has came! I can’t remember the last time I heard USC Women’s team talked about like this. Lisa Leslie was probably the last time. Cool to see who is considered by many to be the GOAT, Cheryl Miller, there.
Juju is an easy first team All American pick at this point
TROJAN PLAYERS ARE ALL IN! GREAT COACHING JOB.
"Wearing #32 . . .She plays with such 'MAGIC."" :D
JUJU, Hidalgo, and Clark are amazing/
great! Can't wait for them to shine in the WNBA.
Don’t drink the Clark koolaid
@@JB-bw8nj Clark shoots 46% FG and 38% 3p which would be good %s for an NBA guard.. juju shoots 40% FG and 32% 3p which would get you on the bench as an NBA player.
@@smallgoon men lie, women lie, numbers mislead in sports.
@@JB-bw8nj riiiiiiight ... Let me know how a 3p FG% is misleading
@@smallgoon because it just doesn’t matter… you’re comparing a freshman to a senior.
Juju 🔥 nice team all around as well!!!
She’s the real love and basketball 🏀
Say, she nice! I like the way she push the tempo. Her and Caitlin and I’m sure some others are changing the game for their sport
😫😫😫that kind of face you put on when seeing her demolish her opponents!!! And She is not a Ball Hogger LOVE IT!!! Shine JuJu Shine Queen
Are you insinuating that Clark is a ball hog? JuJu takes 3 more shots per game average
She ballin💯
Everyone comparing these 2 great talents... I'm wondering what it would look like with then on the same team!!! Epic!!
JuJu Watkins!
Shes unbelievable
i get to see ju ju next week in portland
she is the greatest
@@aldoe7746 i watched a full game i take this statement back she needs to learn team play a lil
Juju definitely has a bag !! A real deal hooper
I don't see any weaknesses in her game. She can do it all. I wish her nothing but the best🏀 ...
@@Good4HealthBad4Education she shoots 42.1%. Anything above 42% is great.
Reminds of Diana tsurasi. Fun to watch.
Reminds me of Maya Moore and she’s the best I ever seen lace em up!
The Clark vs Resse rivalry helped women's college ball. It's good to see other players get their shine too.
Let’s stop pitting these great players against each other. No one is forcing you to choose between Caitlin Clark and Juju. I’m appreciative that I got to see them both play
🔥🔥🔥
Her bag is HUGE. Goodness.
JuJu is really like that. When I seen her against Ohio State early in the season I was like she ain’t nothing to be played with. She is more than legit. And I gotta say this she is absolutely beautiful
Juju is a STAR in the making 🔥
Generational talent.
She different 👑
Juju’s 3 point shooting is good. Her back to the basket 2 point shooting is textbook. And her attacking the rim transition offense is unstoppable!✌️
She scored 9 points against Stanford in the Pac-12 Tournament final a few days ago.
She’s HER 🤯🤯🤯🤯
This kid is incredible.
I would love to see Iowa vs usc it would be lit!
OR, better yet, Ju Ju against Hadolgo of Notre Dame. Check HER out.
The fix is already in. The NCAA will not let it happen unless it's in final four. And they will move heaven and earth for Iowa to win. Watch and see.
She is the real deal without question
dang she goes really hard in the pain
Juju on that beat!
This girl can finish through contact, you don’t see that much and 1s in women’s basketball 💪🏽
She the best out
Ol girl guarding her was like...what am I supposed to do...she was driving...in the post..pulling up on fast breaks lol
We gott a real balla baby❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm from the era of MJ, Pat Ewing, Len Bias, Chris Mullin like the glory days of College Basketball and right now the Women's game is far more exciting than that trash the men roll out nightly. JuJu, Clark, and the youngin from South Carolina are must see TV!! Yo Go Girls!!! Do your thing!!!!
Somewhere, Deanna (Tweety) Nolan, Maya Moore and Carolyn Jones are asking themselves, '' is this young girl related to me''?
She's got the skills that makes them wonder about that question.
i swear if we dont get round the clock coverage for this girl like we did/do for caitlin.... caitlin scored 799 points her freshman year. juju's at 675 with 3 reg season games left. even if usc doesnt win the pac12, and they simply make it to the sweet 16 in the tourney, at 27.5/game she's still outpacing caitlin in the scoring dept. i know its early, she's only a freshman, but just saying.... we need a fair and balanced spotlight!
I've said this since the beginning of the year. It's Soo many freshmen that are playing at a high level this year but they are not getting the same coverage that Paige and Clark got when they were freshman
It’s because usc don’t have a contract with ESPN. It’s not a race thing. And she’s doing great but 3 more games left she gotta avg 40 a game to break that record. If she does that and gets no tv time than I will feel away about it. To me it’s a consistency thing. If she does this next year than she will be in the conversation for player of the year and get all the talk from the media that Clark gets. We gotta put respect on Clark’s name. Juju a freshman Clark is about to be the number one pick and the face of WNBA and the reason they contracts get a raise because she’s marketable in a way that no other female basketball has ever been. With her and Reese bringing the lime light to woman’s sports juju will be great coming up after them. Woman’s basketball is on the rise. But we can just put her above Clark yet.
She shoots more than Clark, 3 shots per game. That's about 100 more shots a year. Her percentages are lower, both 2 & 3 point range.
Boy oh boy...
I luv u juju ❤ your so gorgeous
she is a Beast
She balances out on that jumper with the elites. Kyrie, KD like. T-Mac, Kobe type play with the footwork into the pullup.
Usc vs Iowa i wanma see it during the tournmemt. Juju vs clark is money
juju was straight cooking!!!!!!!!
Best player in the f’n nation 🔥‼️‼️
This is a freshman leading her team hands down best player
she’s dynamic
Juju and Bronny love and basketball IRL
We’re literally seeing Monica from Love & Basketball in real life 💯💯💯
Dame women basketball is in good hands, Caitlin and JuJu is the future!!!
SHE IS SUPER NICE!🔥
SHE'S A FRESHMAN!!! Crazy.
She's really good I hope the WNBA changes the eligibility soon because she could enter the draft after her junior year.
Pretty and cold 🥶! Smh she the truth !
shes gonna make some good money in college she got some skills
She's got a killer pull up jumper shot.
She so cold 🥶
She's legit. Her game is polished and she has that "IT" factor
Juju Pull Up Game 2 Serious 💯
