Aboya Cleared to Play

Alfred Aboya, the 6-foot-8, 233-pound freshman from Cameroon, has been cleared to practice and sophomore point guard Jordan Farmar's ankle injury still appears to be a sprain. Aboya, who had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in July and on the left in October, was expected to practice 50 minutes to an hour the next couple of days, Howland said. Aboya may even play in No. 16-ranked UCLA's game Sunday against Coppin State at Pauley Pavilion. Los Angeles Times
