UCLA Beats Arizona 90-69 in Pauley Pavilion

Arizona drops its second game of the week.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Kris Wilkes scored a career-high 34 points, Moses Brown had 11 points and 15 rebounds, and UCLA defeated Arizona 90-69 on Saturday night to snap a three-game skid.

The Bruins (11-9, 4-3 Pac-12) opened a 20-point lead early in the second half when Wilkes scored their first six points and Jalen Hill completed a 3-point play.

Wilkes tied his career high with five 3-pointers in the second half when UCLA shot 67 percent from the floor and never allowed Arizona to make a run. He also hit all five of his free throw attempts.

Jaylen Hands added 12 points and 11 assists for the Bruins.

The Wildcats (14-7, 5-3) went nearly five minutes without a field goal until Williams hit a 3-pointer that left them trailing 62-41.

Wilkes scored 10 in a row, including two 3s, and Hill's dunk gave UCLA its largest lead of the game, 70-44.

Brandon Williams led Arizona with 19 points in the Wildcats' first visit to Pauley Pavilion in two years. They won that game 96-85 in January 2017 when both teams were ranked in the top 10.

The Pac-12's longtime powers have fallen from that lofty perch with both schools struggling during a season in which no league school currently resides in the Top 25.
