Arizona pushed its advantage as high as 25 before settling for a 45-25 edge at intermission while holding Oakland to 25.8 percent shooting in the opening 20 minutes.

York drained a 3-pointer and made two free throws as the Wildcats scored the first seven of the second half and Hollis-Jefferson’s tip in made is 62-31 less than five minutes in. Arizona cruised from there, finishing with a 50-25 edge on the boards and 21 assists on 33 made field goals.
