In normal seasons, teams have a full 15-player roster at their disposal for practices and games.
But the 2020-2021 season is anything but normal, and this past week, the Bruins saw a new low.
Add the Ducks to the list of Bruin postponements.
UCLA men’s basketball’s (5-2, 1-0 Pac-12) game against No. 25 Oregon (6-1, 1-0) has been postponed indefinitely because of COVID-19 contact tracing protocols relating to the game officials.
UCLA men’s basketball’s (5-1, 1-0 Pac-12) game against Long Beach State (1-2) has been postponed for the second time in just over two weeks. The decision was made “out of an abundance of caution based on COVID-19 protocol within the Long Beach State program,” according to UCLA Athletics.
A new starting lineup helped the Bruins to a season-best scoring performance.
No. 11 UCLA women’s basketball (3-1, 1-1 Pac-12) beat UC Santa Barbara (0-1) 102-45 on Wednesday afternoon.

Prediction: UCLA 21, Arizona State 17
Everyone’s eyes are going to be on the quarterback battle, but it’s the other side of the ball that deserves more attention.
It took more than three hours of on-field football, but the Bruins finally kicked a field goal in 2020.
Despite scoring 111 points over its first three games, UCLA football (2-2) never sent out kicker Nicholas Barr-Mira for three points until midway through the first quarter of its 27-10 victory over Arizona (0-3).
UCLA men’s basketball (1-1) will begin Pac-12 play in December for the 2020-21 season. Before the first conference matchup, Daily Bruin Sports editors each predicted the team’s final conference record, Pac-12 final standing and an X-factor player (or two).
Another day, another postponed game for the Bruins.
No. 9 UCLA women’s basketball’s (1-0) matchup against Pepperdine (0-0) has been postponed because of a positive COVID-19 test within the Waves’ program.
