The UCLA Bruins men’s basketball team had no issues against Cal State Fullerton on Friday in an 80-47 victory. On Tuesday night, they had even fewer issues with Southern Utah in an 88-43 blowout.
UCLA scored 43 first-half points, and only one starter hit the 20-minute mark: Kobe Johnson.
Lazar Stefanovic led the way with 19 points and five rebounds in a team-high 27 minutes as Mick Cronin dug deep into his bench with the game well out of hand.
Cronin was able to play a total of 12 players in this game, and the bench unit saw a lot of run with a lopsided score. Oklahoma State transfer Eric Dailey Jr. had 15 points and a pair of rebounds, and Dylan Andrews added 11 points with three assists in just 15 minutes.
The Bruins haven’t lost since falling to New Mexico in Nevada, and the next game comes against Washington in Los Angeles next Tuesday, so they have a week off before kicking off Big Ten play.
