UCLA Bruins vs Washington Huskies Predictions 1/1/2023

 

After their 80-67 loss against the USC Trojans on Friday, the Washington Huskies‘ record for the year dropped to 9-5 SU and 6-8 ATS.

 

It was their second consecutive defeat; on December 21, the Huskies were thrashed 84-61 by the No. 23 Auburn Tigers.

 

In their game against USC, Washington managed just 32.4% of its field goals while recording an 11/13 assist-to-turnover ratio.

 

Keion Brooks, a senior forward, defeated the Trojans with 22 points, seven rebounds, and three blocks, although just six of his 21 field goal tries were successful.

 

Keyon Menifield, a freshman guard, scored 18 points on 8 of 16 field goal attempts, while Cole Bajema, a senior guard, added 12 points, 4 rebounds, 3 steals, and 3 blocks.

 

In both the KenPom and NCAA NET rankings, Washington is ranked No. 109. The Huskies are 155th in the country with 103.2 points scored per 100 possessions, and they surrender 97.6 in return (89th).

 

They only provide 10.9 assists per game while making only 49.3% of their 2-point attempts (249th) and 32.4% of their 3-point attempts (261st) (336th).

#11 UCLA Bruins vs Washington Huskies. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #11 UCLA Bruins.

 

The Bruins managed to pull through a difficult shooting night in Pullman, and it is anticipated that there will be a much stronger showing on Sunday in Seattle.

 

Over the past several weeks, UCLA played exceptionally well. The Bruins have a lot of depth, so the Huskies will have a tough road ahead of them in front of the home crowd.

 

Keion Brooks is the only quality scorer for Washington. The Bruins, who went 6-0 SU and 4-2 ATS in their previous six games with Washington, are unstoppable despite the Huskies’ excellent 3-point line defense.

 

Washington is 1-4 ATS in its past five matches overall, while UCLA is 4-1 ATS in its last five matches played in January. The #11 UCLA Bruins will win to a predicted score of 76-64.
