What to Know
If the oddsmakers’ predictions hold true, the near future looks bright for Arizona. They and the Washington Huskies will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 2:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at McKale Memorial Center.
Arizona unfortunately witnessed the end of their six-game winning streak on Thursday. They fell just short of the Cougars by a score of 77-74.
The loss doesn’t tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Caleb Love, who scored 27 points along with five assists and two steals. The team also got some help courtesy of Oumar Ballo, who dropped a double-double on 16 points and 11 rebounds.
Meanwhile, it may have taken overtime to finish the job, but Washington ultimately got the result they hoped for on Thursday. They narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Sun Devils 84-82. Having run the score up that high, both teams probably have some extra defensive drills coming up.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Washington to victory, but perhaps none more so than Koren Johnson, who scored 17 points along with seven assists and two steals. Braxton Meah was another key contributor, dropping a double-double on 13 points and 14 rebounds.
The Wildcats’ loss ended a 13-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 20-6. As for the Huskies, they have been performing well recently as they’ve won three of their last four matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 15-12 record this season.
Saturday’s game is shaping up to be a masterclass in shooting: Arizona just can’t miss this season, having made 49.3% of their shots per game. However, it’s not like Washington struggles in that department as they’ve made 47.4% of their shots this season. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
Everything went Arizona’s way against the Huskies in their previous meeting back in January of 2023 as the Wildcats made off with a 95-72 win. Will Arizona repeat their success, or do the Huskies have a better game plan this time around? We’ll find out soon enough.

Police finish DoorDash delivery after arresting driver in New Jersey
WASHINGTON TWP., N.J. — Officers in Washington Township, said they finished a DoorDash food delivery after arresting the driver who had warrants out for his arrest.
Body camera video shows officers stepping in to deliver the food themselves, a move the department in southern New Jersey later shared on its Facebook page.
“I thought something happened. Oh my God, I got so scared,” said the customer when she answered the door.
The DoorDash customer, seen on police body cam video, was instantly relieved and appreciative upon learning why officers were at her door.
“Arrested your driver, but, yeah, we delivered your food,” one of the officers said.
It turns out a Washington Township police officer stopped the DoorDash driver during routine patrols in front of a high school over the weekend.
“He made a stop on it for a violation,” said Washington Township Police Chief Patrick Gurcsik.
But then, Chief Gurcsik said the officer learned the driver had warrants out for his arrest in another county.
“He made the officers aware that he had two DoorDash meals in the car that he was in the middle of delivering,” Gurcsik said.
The officers went from cuffing the driver to ringing a doorbell to finish his delivery.
“I never heard of anything like that in the South Jersey area. It’s sort of a first for us here in Washington Township, definitely,” Gurcsik said.

It’s happened in other places, too, including in New Mexico last summer, when a motorcycle cop delivered someone’s Chick-fil-A order after arresting the driver.
“Hello, sir, got your DoorDash. Oh, thank you,” the officer said. “He’s a good kid, give him five stars. He just didn’t take care of a simple insurance ticket.”
And officers over in Arizona made a similar arrest during a traffic stop and were seen on body camera finishing the delivery.
“Your GrubHub, still delivered your pizza,” the officer said.
“We definitely serve the community in more ways than one,” Gurcsik said.

Bill strengthening Washington child sex abuse material laws focuses on consciousness, AI
SEATTLE — A bill aimed at tightening Washington’s laws on child sex abuse material is headed to Gov. Bob Ferguson’s desk after clearing the Legislature unanimously.
King County Prosecuting Attorney Leesa Manion said 2ESSB 5105 passed the House unanimously Tuesday night after the Senate unanimously approved it on Jan. 28, 2026.

Manion called the measure one of her public safety legislative priorities.
“People who peddle in the misery of sexually abused children must be held accountable,” Manion said. “I am grateful for the work of Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Laura Harmon – both in prosecuting these cases and advocating for these legal fixes – and Senators Tina Orwall and Manka Dhingra for championing this legislation.”
Manion’s office said the current state law has gaps that can prevent prosecutors from holding offenders accountable in some cases.
Under current law, prosecutors cannot charge defendants for creating images of child sex abuse unless the child victim was conscious or knew they were being recorded.
The office also said that possessing sexually explicit fabricated (AI) images of non-identifiable minors is not considered child sex abuse material under Washington law.
The bill would update RCW 9.68A.040 to remove the requirement that a child be aware of an abusive recording. It would also update the definition of child sex abuse material to include fabricated (AI) images of non-identifiable minors.
The legislation would also increase the statute of limitations to 10 years for depiction crimes. Manion’s office said the current statute of limitations is three years, and argued that because the images can remain online indefinitely, victims can be re-traumatized for decades.
