Update: The Beavers have been tough at home, where they beat California and lost in four overtimes to Stanford — the two teams at the top of the Pac-12 Conference standings. Guard Jared Cunningham averages 17.6 points and has gone to the free-throw line 152 times this season. UCLA has shot 331 as a team.

He is expected to play.
