Saturday was a tale of two zones for UCLA.
The Bruins shot lights out from 3-point distance, making 17 of their 30 attempts, including 9-of-11 after halftime.
On the defensive end, UCLA’s 3-2 zone wreaked havoc on Cal’s offense. The Bears shot only 18.2 percent on 3-pointers and 25.6 percent overall in the first half.
Not sure why the Daily Bruin says zones. I will say Don MacLean in a postgame question that really summed up the Bruins and the key to their good first half:
When you guys are locked in defensively it really helps your offense.
