The UCLA Basketball team was outplayed in the first half, lucky to be down only five at halftime. The Bruins’ shots weren’t falling, and their questionable defense finally took a toll.
Oregon’s star Dillon Brooks (23 points, 9 rebounds) had plenty of running room in the paint, and Oregon’s bigs were huge on the offensive glass – forward Jordan Bell had six offensive rebounds.
In the second half, the defense found its footing, and the Bruins’ shots started to fall. Lonzo Ball hit all three of his three point shots this evening in the second half.
