Poor free throw shooting, rebounding doom Arizona in triple OT loss to UCLA

Poor free throw shooting and rebounding doomed the Arizona Wildcats Sunday when they were outlasted by the UCLA Bruins 98-93 in triple overtime.

The Bruins turned 27 offensive boards into 27 second-chance points, while the Wildcats went 11 for 27 from the charity stripe.

UA senior Destiny Graham missed two free throws that could have given UA a one-point lead with 1:42 left in third overtime period, then missed two more with 28 seconds left that would have tied it.

It wasted a stellar effort by Aari McDonald who finished with 35 points 12 rebounds, and seven assists.
