Lew Alcindor, Bill Walton, and John Wooden haven’t played or coached for UCLA inside Pauley Pavilion since the late 1960s and early 1970s, but the Iowa men’s basketball team allowed the 2024-25 rendition of the Bruins to look just like those famous squads on Friday evening in Los Angeles.

Iowa men’s basketball player Payton Sandfort injured his left (non-shooting) shoulder during Friday’s game at UCLA and will miss the rest of the contest. Sandfort got tangled up with a UCLA player during the first half and went to the bench in pain.

UCLA absolutely crushed Iowa 94-70 at Pauley Pavilion to get back on track and snap a four-game losing streak of its own while Iowa picked up its second consecutive loss. However, the blowout defeat may not be the worst news from the game if you're an Iowa fan.
