Aday Mara doesn’t miss in crunch time as resurgent UCLA defeats Washington

SEATTLE — The big guy did it again.

Three days after his breakout game, Aday Mara made sure UCLA didn’t falter with two huge baskets in the final two minutes.

The Bruins had no choice but to use a heavy helping of the 7-foot-3 center on Friday night after forward Tyler Bilodeau turned his ankle in the game’s early going and was limited to just three minutes.

Mara didn’t disappoint in his career-high 30 minutes inside Alaska Airlines Arena, dominating on both ends during UCLA’s 65-60 victory over Washington.
