UCLA Basketball Drops in the AP Poll After Loss to Arizona

The UCLA Basketball team dropped five spots in the rankings to #8 after they lost by 11 at home to the now #7 Arizona Wildcats.

After moving back to the #3 spot last week, UCLA had a tough time in both games against the Arizona schools.

The Bruins almost let a large lead slip away against Arizona State last Thursday, but were able to end strong.

On Saturday, the Bruins lack of defense caught up with them as the Wildcats held the Bruins to 45.1%. With no defense and struggles with shooting, UCLA just could not keep up.
