SEATTLE — By halftime Monday night, UCLA did not look ready for March. More like a team in need of a season reboot.
In a showing as dreary as the cold, wet weather outside Alaska Airlines Arena, the Bruins couldn’t make a shot and their usually sturdy defense was not offering much resistance.
The dual disappointment left UCLA in need of a comeback against Washington to avoid another bad road loss and fueling further doubt about whether the Bruins could make it to the NCAA Tournament’s second weekend, much less another trip to the Final Four.
