Creighton begins the third week of the regular season, featuring a pair of games against Mid-American Conference opponents, from a higher perch in the Associated Press rankings.The 6-0 Bluejays jumped two spots to No. 10 in the latest rankings, released Monday. Its the third time in school history that Creighton has appeared in the Top 10 since the poll was founded in 1949.Jays coach Greg McDermott said the new rating is a nice way to show how the season is progressing for Creighton, which is one of three Big East teams in the Top 10.Because we started the preseason ranked in the Top 25 it means youve played okay so far, McDermott said. Weve taken care of business to this point. Our offense has been incredibly efficient but those polls mean a lot more later in the season than they do now.McDermott said he talked with the team before the new ratings were published about the importance of remembering where the Bluejays were less than a year ago and the role they had in these kinds of games.We have to remember back last year when we went on the road to Providence, Butler, Xavier and Villanova, Seton Hall, teams that were ranked in the Top 25, McDermott said. How you have just a little bit extra motivation when you go into those environments.Thats the perspective Buffalo will have when the Bulls play the Jays in Tuesdays 7:45 p.m. showdown at CenturyLink Center. The Bulls, who are the defending MAC postseason tournament champions, enter the game 4-2 after finishing third at last weeks Great Alaska Shootout.Now the shoe is on the other foot, McDermott said. A team like Buffalo comes in here in search of a signature win. Theyre an NCAA tournament team from a year ago, and they played very well in the NCAA tournament. A lot of those guys return.Blake Hamilton leads the Bulls with 16.7 points per game and is second in both rebounds (6.7) and assists (4.2). Leading rebounder Nick Perkins is second in scoring at 13.7 per game to go with his 8.2 boards per outing.Creighton counters with its deep offensive rotation that leads the nation in three-point shooting (47.9 percent) and is second in overall field goal percentage (.547) while averaging 91.8 points per game. That number puts the Jays eighth nationally in scoring.Marcus Foster was named player of the week while Justin Patton earned freshman of the week honors in the Big East Conference. Foster averaged 20.5 points and 3.5 rebounds in Creightons two victories last week.Patton averaged 14 points and 5.5 rebounds in those same two games. The 7-foot redshirt freshman from Omaha North also had two assists, two blocked shots and a steal. Patton scored 22 of his 28 points in the second half of those wins over Mississippi and Loyola (Md.).It means a lot to me because I take my game week by week every week, Foster said. My teammates really helped me get it. They looked for me a lot and I got (some) easy baskets from them.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Until a couple of months ago, Brandon Ingrams new locker at the Los Angeles Lakers training complex was occupied by Kobe Bryant.The 18-year-old rookie sees the daunting symbolism in literally taking the place of the most prolific scorer in franchise history, and he greets it with a smile.I did see where my locker was, and I definitely knew it was Kobes locker, Ingram said. (General manager) Mitch (Kupchak) told me I had some big shoes to fill when I came in here, but I liked it. I like the pressure thats on me right now. Of course its going to motivate me to do good things on the court. Its all good pressure for me.Ingram put on those shoes for the first time Tuesday at a practice for the Lakers Las Vegas summer league team. The No. 2 overall pick in last months draft then joined fellow Lakers selection Ivica Zubac in a tour of the complex, posing in front of owner Jeanie Buss collection of championship trophies before receiving their new gold jerseys -- No. 14 for Ingram, No. 40 for Zubac.The Lakers believe Ingram is a centerpiece of their next great roster. Theyre starting nearly from the bottom after the worst season in team history and the retirement of Bryant, who won five titles and became the NBAs third-leading scorer during his 20-year career.Ingram could be two decades away from approaching those achievements, but the smooth-shooting forward hasnt flinched under the weight of comparisons to Bryant -- or to Kevin Durant, another lanky shooter who transformed a struggling team. Just over a year after graduating from high school in tiny Kinston, North Carolina, Ingram is shouldering those burdens with apparent ease.He never talked about (being compared to Durant), said Ingrams father, Donald. He definitely has similar tools on the court, but hes never showed that he feels the pressure. Even here, with people talking about filling Kobes shoes, hes just going to pave his own way. Hes going to be Brandon.Ingram is already determined to build chemistry with Julius Randle, Jordan Clarkson and fellow No. 2 pick DAngelo Russell, the Lakers point guard. His primary goal is to become a more vocal player after Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski impressed the impoortance of communication on him last season.ddddddddddddI was ready for this first practice, Ingram said. Just getting on the floor with those guys, and just seeing how he (Russell) wants to play, and of course how the coach wants to play. Connecting with those guys is really important to see what they want to do to be a contender in this league.Ingrams cool is even impressing Zubac, the 7-foot Bosnian teenager chosen with the 32nd overall pick. Zubac grew up an enormous Lakers fan, but he wouldnt want Bryants locker.He can have that pressure, Zubac said, drawing a laugh from his new teammate.Ingram will have plenty of support in his rookie season, starting with Luke Walton and the Lakers new coaching staff. Los Angeles also signed fellow Duke product Luol Deng as a free agent, and Ingram intends to stick close to his fellow 6-foot-9 Blue Devil.Hell also have support from family and friends, including Jerry Stackhouse, his longtime mentor and fellow Kinston native.Donald Ingram is a veteran basketball referee who has also run a recreation center back home in Kinston. He raised his sons with a healthy respect for the games rules and fundamentals, putting Brandon into ball-handling drills as a child. Donald was determined to prevent his sons from falling into what he calls the AND1 mentality of flashy, highlight-driven play.Hes always been a player that listened, even when the adults were playing, Donald Ingram said. Thats part of being coachable, his ability to listen. Hes a kid thats willing to learn.Ingrams 25-year-old brother, Bo, played at the University of Texas before getting drafted by the D-League and playing professionally in Mexico. Bo will be out on the West Coast with Brandon after summer league, looking for a place to live before getting to work in September.Were from the East Coast, and hell be 19 years old, Donald Ingram said. We want to make sure he has somebody with him, and hes living as close to the facility as possible. Its a big concern, and that, to me, is more of a concern than his ability to make an impact with the Lakers. ' ' '
