Tony Parker added 22 points and 12 boards for UCLA (9-7, 1-2
Pac-12), which snapped a five-game slide. Bryce Alford (15 points)
nailed a go-ahead 3-pointer with 6.3 seconds left in the first
overtime but fouled Chasson Randle at the other end for his fifth
foul, leading to a split at the line and a second extra period.
Randle delivered a season-high 32 points and hit seven 3-pointers
but Stanford (10-4, 2-1) could not overcome some poor free-throw
shooting in the final seconds and finished 14-of-21 at the line.
Anthony Brown scored 21 points and Rosco Allen had 14 off the bench
as the Cardinal lost their 10th straight at UCLA.
Stanford held a 64-51 lead with 8 1/2 minutes left before the Bruins
began to fight back, getting 10 points from Looney and a go-ahead
3-pointer from Alford in a 15-1 run that gave UCLA the lead at 66-65
with just under four minutes to play. Randle split a pair of free
throws to tie it and both teams missed three shots down the stretch
to force overtime.
Randle knocked down a pair of 3-pointers in the first extra period
but came up short again at the line after Alford gave him a chance
to win it, forcing the second extra session. Parker hit the go-ahead
layup in the second OT and dunked to make it 84-79 with 15 seconds
left before Norman Powell sealed it with a pair of free throws.
