Pauley Pavilion was the new home of alley-oop passes flying through the air Sunday night, with UCLA point guard Jaylen Hands feeding center Moses Brown for dunks three times in the game’s first 5½ minutes.
The Bruins were in a sharing mood for much of an 82-58 victory over Loyola Marymount that represented their best all-around effort of the season.
UCLA (6-2) logged assists on eight of its first nine baskets while building a double-digit lead it held for most of a drama-free game. The Bruins were also committed defensively, holding Loyola Marymount to 29% shooting, and avoided lengthy lulls while handing the Lions (8-1) their first loss of the season.
