Utah Drops Road Game Against UCLA, 69-59

LOS ANGELES (AP)- Delon Wright scored 15 points and Brandon Taylor had 14 for the Utes in Thursday night's loss to UCLA.
The Bruins went into half with a three point lead and led through the second half. UCLA held its halftime lead after a back-and-forth first period that featured four lead changes and five ties.
"I thought they played harder than us," Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak said. "We really had only about a 5-minute stretch where we played hard enough."
The Bruins committed just six turnovers and outscored Utah 34-26 in the paint. They also had eight steals and forced 14 turnovers.
"They outscrapped us and we made it hard on ourselves," Krystkowiak said. "We're not the kind of team that can just show up. It just wasn't good."
Taylor ended the Utes' skid with a 3-pointer from the right wing and followed with a steal and layup to make it 45-35 UCLA with 11:02 to go, but Hamilton responded with eight consecutive points to lead a Bruins spurt and give them a 56-41 lead with 7:30 left.
Taylor led another Utes rally and nailed his third 3-pointer of the half to cut the deficit to 62-55 with 2:58 remaining, but UCLA hit seven of its final 10 free throws to ice it.
Utah beat UCLA 71-39 the first time the teams met this season on Jan. 4 in Salt Lake City.
