UCLA basketball cruises past Idaho State

Another win for UCLA.

The UCLA Bruins men’s basketball team began the year with three wins and just one loss, which came against New Mexico in Nevada. 

On Wednesday night, UCLA had no issues with Idaho State at Pauley Pavilion as the Bruins got the 84-70 victory.

UCLA scored 41 first-half points, and it was once again Oregon State transfer Tyler Bilodeau who led the way with 20 points.

Eric Dailey Jr., another transfer, added 16 points. However, Sebastian Mack broke free with 21 points, including an impressive 15-of-16 from the free throw line, as UCLA got the win.

UCLA defeated Lehigh by 40 points last week, and it was Dailey, Bilodeau, and Aday Mara who led the charge.

UCLA now moves to 4-1 on the year, and the schedule is favorable over the next week. The Bruins face Cal State Fullerton on Friday followed by Southern Utah on Tuesday before a pair of Big Ten games against Washington and Oregon.
