UCLA and Kent State will battle in an opening round matchup in the 2017 NCAA Tournament. A look at how to watch this online can be seen below.

Following the conclusion of the First Four, the main part of the 2017 NCAA Tournament will get underway on Thursday. It will be a day full of action from the afternoon until midnight. This is typically one of the hottest days of the three weeks of March Madness with the 16 games taking place, one of which will be UCLA vs. Kent State.

UCLA vs. Kent State is an opening round matchup out of the South Region. It will take place from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, CA.

The Bruins are led by superstar freshman, Lonzo Ball. He’s becoming not only known for his flashy play, but the talk of his father, LaVar Ball. It’s made the team all about the Ball’s, and should be a primary focus of this game on Thursday night. There’s good reason for this too, as Lonzo is set to be a top five or 10 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft.

Outside of Ball, there’s TJ Leaf, another player expected to be a high first-round pick in the draft. These two make for a significant portion of UCLA’s offense and should be more than enough for Kent State to have to handle.
