Jaylen Clark scored 24 points and No. 19 UCLA opened the second half with a 17-0 run on its way to an 87-64 rout of Denver on Saturday for the Bruins' fifth straight victory.
Jaime Jaquez Jr. added 18 points on 9-of-11 shooting for the Bruins , who last week opened Pac-12 play with a pair of wins. Clark's points were one off his career high.
Denver has six players who average double figures, but they didn't put up those numbers Saturday. Touko Tainamo had 16 points and seven rebounds as one of two starters in foul trouble. Justin Mullins added 14 points. Clark had a big hand in a 10-0 run later in the half. He combined with freshman Adem Bona to score all the points and extend UCLA's lead to 74-42. Clark opened with a 3-pointer before Bona's 3-point play. Clark then stole the ball and scored on a layup in which he got fouled. He didn't make the free throw, but Bona finished off the run with a basket.
Hill was 22 when he died last summer after going missing in Costa Rica. He started 40 of 77 games over three years until leaving last season for personal reasons.
