This UCLA Basketball News Roundup is tough to write as it was an ugly game and Dimitri did a great job of summarizing. First let’s get out of the way the Daily Bruin which does a simple version of the loss:
The Bruins missed seven of their final eight free throws in regulation before giving up a game-tying 3-pointer with five seconds left. They finished 19-of-35 from the line.
It shouldn’t have been a tough lead to protect, but the Bruins did have to make their free throws.
They didn’t and paid the price.
