No. 22 UCLA men’s basketball (1-0) opened its season with an 84-75 victory over No. 5 Arizona (0-1) at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, overcoming a career-best 38-point performance from Wildcat forward Ivan Kharchenkov and a furious second-half comeback to deliver coach Mick Cronin’s second win over a top-five opponent in 2026.
