TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Arizona assists leader Kyle Fogg hopes to be healthy again for the Wildcats’ NCAA tournament opener on Friday after being limited by a left quadriceps strain during the Pac-10 tournament.

Fogg said Thursday he’s “feeling really good right now” and “should be at 90 or 100 percent” when the fifth-seeded Wildcats (27-7) play Memphis (25-9).

Fogg is Arizona’s third-leading scorer with 8.3 points per game. He has started 30 of the team’s 34 games, but was kept out of the starting lineup at the Pac-10 tournament and averaged only 13 minutes of playing time.

He had played at least 30 minutes in nine of the Wildcats’ previous 10 games.

Coach Sean Miller says he thinks Fogg will be as healthy as he was before the injury.
