Oregon has received a tremendous boost from three transfers, Devoe Joseph (Minnesota), Olu Ashaolu (Louisiana Tech) and Tony Woods (Wake Forest). Joseph averages 15 points to lead the team. UCLA defensive lapses led to an 87-84 loss to Oregon State on Thursday. The Beavers shot 58%. UCLA guard Jerime Anderson suffered a muscle injury when he was kneed in his upper right leg during the game. He is also playing with a sore tailbone. Coach Ben Howland said that he needed to play Anderson and guard Lazeric Jones less to keep them fresh. Jones played 37 minutes and Anderson 36 against Oregon State. The Bruins have won one game outside Southern California this season.
