UCLA Basketball: Bruins Get a Scare in Win Over Arizona State

The UCLA Basketball team was about to have their toughest game of the season. Too bad it was the game after Arizona State.

The writing was on the wall. With the Bruins’ contest against the Arizona Wildcats on Saturday, Thursday night’s game was one of those pesky “trap games”, and did it ever feel like it.

With a lot riding on this weekend’s game in Tucson, it was easy for the Bruins to look past ASU, which was evident throughout this game.

Once again, the Bruins looked uninspired to start a game. UCLA blew out ASU in their first meeting back in January, but this game in Tempe was different.
