The Cal Basketball team played their second game of the LA road trip Sunday night squaring off against the UCLA Bruins. The Bears could not get their offense going Wednesday night against USC and it was more of the same as they lost to the Bruins 73-54.

The Bears are now 11-6 overall and 1-3 in Pac-12 play. In addition, they have lost five or their last six games.

The Bears offense, what there was of it, was led by Jordan Mathews’ 23 points but no other Bear scored in double figures. Senior David Kravish added 9 points and became the fourth player in Pac-12 history to have at least 1,000 points, 800 rebounds and 200 blocks.

UCLA was led by Kevin Looney’s 15 points and he had help from Normal Powell(14), Tony Parker(13) and Isaac Hamilton(13).

UCLA led the the Bears in rebounds 40-34 and turned the ball over just six times compared to Cal’s sixteen.

The Bears return home to face the Stanford Cardinal Wednesday night at Haas Pavilion.
