Aday Mara, a 7-foot-3 center, played a pivotal role in UCLA's 85-83 victory against No. 18 Wisconsin, marking a significant moment in his career. He scored 22 points with an impressive shooting performance, while his defensive skills significantly disrupted Wisconsin's strategy. The game was tightly contested, with UCLA reclaiming the lead late in the game as forward William Kyle III executed a key block. Despite Wisconsin's late attempts to tie, UCLA managed to secure the win, breaking the Badgers' winning streak and confirming their competitiveness in the conference.
Mara was a force well beyond his career-high 22 points on seven-for-seven shooting, his presence disrupting nearly everything Wisconsin wanted to do.
It took another UCLA big man to finish the job. Forward William Kyle III did his job to perfection, blocking John Blackwell's jumper with nine seconds left.
