The No. 13 Bruins ended the game on a 13-3 run
Adams replaced starter Larry Drew II, who suffered a dislocated finger on his shooting hand and left the game. Twin brothers Travis and David Wear shared the frontcourt as starters and were impressive in the Bruins' victory. Travis went 6 of 12 and had 17 points, six rebounds, one assist and one blocked shot while David added 13 points and 10 rebounds of his own.
UCLA got a balanced scoring effort as four players scored in double figures. They shot 47.4 percent from the field and held Indiana State to just 30.6 percent shooting. The Sycamores made just 5 of 27 three-point attempts.
The Bruins will next face UCI on Nov. 13 at home as they move to 1-0 on the season.
