Jordan Adams had 19 points and six rebounds to lead the
Bruins (17-4, 6-2 Pac-12). Norman Powell added 17 points and six
rebounds and Wear produced 12 for UCLA, which scored the
game's final five points. Joseph Young had 25 points and five steals and Jason Calliste
scored 21 off the bench on 4-for-9 shooting from 3-point range
for the Ducks (14-6, 2-6), who have lost six of seven after
reaching as high as No. 9 in the coaches' poll. Richard Amardi
contributed 13 points off the bench, while three starters for
Oregon — Mike Moser, Ben Carter and Dominic Artis — went
scoreless. The Bruins led by 11 with six minutes remaining but Young got
assertive after going scoreless the first eight minutes of the
half and scored seven points in an 14-0 run that gave the Ducks
a 68-65 lead with 1:12 left. Adams ended the run and tied the
score at 68 on a three-point play and Calliste missed a
3-pointer on the other end, leading to Wear's winning basket. The Bruins bottled up Young early in the second half after he
scored 16 in the first 20 minutes. Moser, the team's
second-leading scorer, picked up his first two fouls on
back-to-back possessions less than four minutes into the game
and was ineffective the rest of the contest. GAME NOTEBOOK: UCLA G Kyle Anderson played through a sore neck and finished with six points, 10 assists and a career-high nine turnovers. ... UCLA had nine field goals in the first half and nine turnovers. ... Oregon forced 16 turnovers in all and forced double-digit turnovers in 18 of 20 games this season. [© 2014 Thomson Reuters.
