Utah was coming in on a 9-game losing streak. The Huskies had won 3-straight conference games at home with a chance to take control of a spot in the upper half of the standings. Despite those facts, Utah gave Washington everything they could handle but the Huskies battled back each time to eventually get the win in double overtime. Terrell Brown Jr. had 29 points to help the Dawgs improve to 11-8 (6-3) on the season.
Washington like always started slow on offense but the little offense they did get came from an unlikely source. Nate Roberts scored Washington’s first 6 points on 3/3 shooting to help get the Huskies to an early lead.
