Pac-12 basketball roundup: Washington stays on top of Pac-12 after 71-52 win over California
Dominic Green hit four 3-pointers and scored 17 points off the bench, Matisse Thybulle added 13 points, and Washington improved to 5-0 in conference play for the first time in 35 years with a 71-52 win over California on Saturday.
Washington (14-4, 5-0 Pac-12) won its seventh straight overall, but this one won’t be an attractive addition to the season resume. The Huskies missed 13 of their first 14 shots and committed nine turnovers in the first half, trailing by as many as 11 against the Golden Bears. But the Huskies rallied to stay unbeaten through five conference games for the first time since 1983-84 when they started 6-0.
Stanford 78, at Washington State 66: Daejon Davis scored 15 points with six assists and Stanford beat Washington State 78-66 on Saturday.
Oscar Da Silva scored 12 points with five rebounds for Stanford (9-9, 2-4, Pac-12 Conference) and Josh Sharma added 11 points and eight rebounds.
CJ Elleby scored 18 points and eight rebounds for Washington State (8-10, 1-4) and Ahmed Ali finished with 14 points on 4-of-5 shooting from 3-point range.
at Arizona 82, Oregon State 71: Brandon Williams scored 20 points and Arizona dominated the offensive glass despite a scary fall by big man Chase Jeter in an 82-71 victory over Oregon State on Saturday night.
Following a lackluster loss to Oregon, Arizona (14-5, 5-1 Pac-12) knocked off the Beavers with a slew of 3-pointers and offensive rebounds.
The Wildcats went 13 for 27 from the arc and snagged 21 offensive boards, leading to 28 second-chance points. They did it without Jeter, who did not return after going down on his back four minutes into the game.
at Arizona State 78, Oregon 64: Zylan Cheatham scored 17 points to lead five Arizona State players in double figures and the Sun Devils used a second-half outburst to beat Oregon 78-64 on Saturday night.
Taeshon Cherry added 15 points for the Sun Devils on 5-of-10 3-pointers.
Payton Pritchard scored 20 and Louis King 16 for the cold-shooting Ducks, who split a pair in the desert after winning at Arizona on Thursday night.
The Sun Devils (13-5, 4-2 Pac-12) completed a home sweep of the Oregon schools and snapped an eight-game losing streak to the Ducks (11-7, 2-3).
