The win gives UCLA their second win over a Top 25 team in 10 days.
UCLA jumped out to a quick 10-3 and 13-5 lead behind a pair of three-pointers from Isaac Hamilton. However, Kyle Wintjer proved why he is considered one of the best in college basketball hitting three long threes in a row to narrow the gap to three, 17-14. The big-big lineup hurt this time because Tony Parker has never been matched with a guy that can shoot that far out.
Steve Alford countered with Jonah Bolden. Bolden was able to slow down Wintjer and really tease the future.
