🇦🇺 Arizona 73, Houston 66 (Final)

Arizona: 25–2 (1st in Big 12)

No.4 ranked Arizona won by seven points on the road, holding Houston to 66 points and controlling the final stretch, as senior guard Anthony Dell’Orso backed up his previous 22-point outing with another 22-point performance, shooting 8-from-14 from the field, adding three rebounds and four steals in 34 minutes.

Dell’Orso followed his 22-point effort against BYU on February 19 – where he shot 8-from-15 from the field and 4-from-8 from three in a seven-point win – with a near-identical scoring output against Houston, again finishing with 22 points but this time generating impact defensively with four steals and no turnovers. Across the two wins, he combined for 44 points on 16-from-29 shooting, hit six three-pointers and played a combined 60 minutes, operating as a scoring option in half-court sets and in transition while maintaining ball security in the road victory.

In the Houston win, Dell’Orso scored efficiently inside the arc, converting at 57.1% from the field, and added four free throws as Arizona closed the final possessions with stops and controlled execution.
