The UCLA men’s basketball team is set to play against Gonzaga at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle on Saturday, December 13. This game is part of a two-year series between the teams. Ticket sales will begin on Friday, September 19, with a presale available on Thursday, September 18. More information can be found at www.climatepledgearena.com.
In their previous encounter last season, UCLA defeated Gonzaga 65-62 at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. Eric Dailey Jr. led the Bruins with 18 points during that game.
This will be the 11th meeting between UCLA and Gonzaga. The teams have faced each other five times over the past five seasons, including two NCAA Tournament matchups.
The upcoming game will mark UCLA’s first appearance at the Seattle venue since January 6, 2000. The arena was previously known as KeyArena and underwent renovations before reopening as Climate Pledge Arena in 2021.
UCLA fans who are Wooden Athletic Fund members, season ticket holders or Den Pass holders can request tickets through UCLA based on specific criteria such as recognition level and consecutive years as a ticket member. Other fans can register for presale access via the Climate Pledge Arena website.
UCLA’s team returns four key players from last season: Tyler Bilodeau, Skyy Clark, Eric Dailey Jr., and Trent Perry. Redshirt players Brandon Williams and Eric Freeny are also expected to compete for playing time this fall. Additionally, the team has added new transfer student-athletes and one freshman to its roster.
