Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Jalen Hill each scored 18 points, and host UCLA flexed its advantage on the interior to rout San Jose State 93-64 Sunday.

Jaquez earned just his second start at UCLA with a strong individual showing at the Maui Invitational and continued on a positive track. His 7-of-10 shooting from the floor paced the Bruins' 52.3 percent shooting from the field.

UCLA (6-3) used an 18-7 run to close the first half, attacking mostly inside to score points with its size advantage. The Bruins outscored San Jose State in the paint, 42-28, and their edge inside extended to the glass and free throw line.

Hill, who also had 10 rebounds, scored eight of his points on free throws. The Bruins shot 21-of-27 as a team from the foul line.

UCLA also converted 20 Spartans turnovers into 25 points.

Chris Smith added 14 points and Prince Ali followed with 10 for UCLA. Shareef O'Neal came off the bench to score eight points, pull down five rebounds and make a steal.

The UCLA offense included 21 assists on its 34 field goals.

San Jose State (3-5) could not overcome its turnovers, which contributed to long field goal droughts in both halves.

The Spartans pulled within five points on a Sam Japhet-Mathias jumper with 9:26 in the first; they did not score another field goal until 1:22 remained in the half.

San Jose State went on another dry spell from the floor in the second, going more than three minutes without a bucket while UCLA extended its advantage to 33 points.

Zach Chappell led the Spartans with 12 points. Omari Moore and Richard Washington added 11 and 10 points. All three came off the bench as San Jose State's starters shot just 6-of-28 from the floor and combined for 27 points, 11 from Seneca Knight.
