Arizona rolls past No. 25 Baylor for 7th straight win

Henri Veesaar's 19 points led Arizona to its seventh straight win, 81-70 over No. 25 Baylor on Tuesday night in Tucson, Ariz. Jaden Bradley had 13 points, five rebounds and six assists for Arizona. KJ Lewis finished with 11 points and seven assists. Arizona (11-5, 5-0 Big 12) took advantage of short-handed Baylor (11-5, 3-2) for most of the game, building a 27-point lead in the second half. The Bears battled back, making eight consecutive field goals to cut the deficit to 71-62 with 2:52 left, but they did not get closer. Baylor, which cracked the AP Top 25 on Monday after winning six of its previous seven games, played mostly with a six-player rotation because Jalen Celestine and Langston Love missed their fourth straight game with ankle injuries.
