UCLA defeated Arizona 66-64 in the semifinals of the Pac-12 tournament on Friday night, leading them to a spot in the championship game.
They were down 11 points with just over 10 minutes left, but managed their second comeback in as many games. Their scoring effort was led by freshman guard Jordan Adams, who contributed 24 points to the win.
UCLA will face the winner of the Utah versus Oregon game in the finals of the Pac-12 Tournament on Saturday.
[UPDATED at 9:02 p.m. Adams appears to have injured his foot at the end of the game, and told reporters that it was broken afterward. Adams was UCLA’s second leading scorer this season.
UCLA confirmed that Adams broke the fifth metatarsal in his right foot, and that he is out for the remainder of the season.]
