San Jose State started the game off slow, but ended up leading at the half despite taking 10 less shots than Cal. Defensively, the Bears executed their game plan extremely well. However, they struggled to find rhythm on offense. The Bears failed to find balance and spacing, and beyond that they just weren’t making many shots on the perimeter, going 5 for 18 in three point field goals. Andre Kelly led the Bears in scoring with 12 points.
In the second half, the Bears jumped out to a 12 point lead early, but their poor shooting and spacing did not go away.
