Utah Utes at UCLA Bruins
· NCAA Men's Basketball66 - 80
Adams leads UCLA to 80-66 win over Utah
Kyle Anderson had 16 points, 10 rebounds and five assists for UCLA (20-5, 9-3 Pac-12), and Norman Powell had 13 points before fouling out with 50 seconds remaining.
Delon Wright scored 16 points for Utah (17-8, 6-7). The Utes, who came in with a 3-game winning streak, are 3-29 on the road since Larry Krystkowiak became coach in 2011-12.
This was only the second loss this season by Utah that was decided by more than four points. The other was Jan. 26, when the Utes lost to then-unbeaten Arizona 65-56 at Tucson. Utah was coming off its first road win of the season, a 79-71 decision against USC on Thursday.
Adams, who made 10 of 14 shots, paced UCLA to a 33-31 halftime lead with 12 points. Neither team led by more than six until Travis Ware's 3-pointer increased the Bruins' margin to 40-31 with 16:38 to play. Adams converted a three-point play 66 seconds later after a missed 3-point attempt at the other end by Jordan Loveridge, making it 45-31.
The Utes didn't make a field goal in the second half until Loveridge connected on an 18-footer with 14:27 remaining. Anderson gave UCLA its biggest lead, 64-47, on a jumper with 5:46 to play and Utah got no closer than 74-64 after Wright was fouled behind the 3-point line by Powell and made all three free throws.
Freshman guard Zach LaVine, the Bruins' leading scorer off the bench and fourth-leading scorer overall coming in, missed his first six shots before ending the drought on a layup with 39 seconds on the clock.
That season also marked the last time a UCLA player recorded at least 200 rebounds and 100 assists until this one, when Anderson became the first since Charles O'Bannon to turn the trick. Entering Saturday, Anderson was only player in the nation who was averaging at least 10.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists.
