With less than two weeks before Selection Sunday, the UCLA men’s basketball team has put itself in a good position.
Saturday’s victory at Arizona vaulted the Bruins two spots to No. 3 in Monday’s Associated Press poll. It’s UCLA’s highest ranking since it was No. 2 on Dec. 26.
Arizona dropped from No. 4 to No. 7 and Gonzaga fell from No. 1 to No. 4 after suffering its first defeat in its final regular season game Saturday against BYU.
Kansas moved up to No. 1, receiving 58 of the 65 first-place votes. No. 2 Villanova got two first-place votes, UCLA got three and Gonzaga two.
