UCLA Bruins Men's Basketball History
The UCLA Bruins played their first men’s basketball game in 1919, but the program did not take off until the legendary John Wooden assumed coaching duties in 1948. Wooden, nicknamed the Wizard of Westwood, remained at the school until 1975 and put together a historic tenure, racking 10 NCAA titles in 11 years and seven consecutively.
The UCLA Bruins hold a number of records in men's basketball thanks to Wooden’s dominant years at the helm, including 11 NCAA titles, the most of any school. The Bruins have won four conference titles and 38 regular-season conference championships (16 under Wooden), mostly in the Pac-12, where UCLA had been a member from 1928 to 2024. Ahead of the 2024-25 season, the UCLA Bruins moved to the Big Ten Conference along with their historical, crosstown rival, the University of Southern California Trojans.
Many UCLA Bruins have gone on to play in the NBA. These include six-time NBA Champion, six-time MVP and 19-time NBA All-Star Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who played in three of the Bruins' NCAA Championships. UCLA's other five Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame winners are Don Barksdale, Gail Goodrich, Reggie Miller, Bill Walton and Jamaal Wilkes, while other notable NBA players who are UCLA alums include Baron Davis, Trevor Ariza, Kevin Love, Russell Westbrook, Matt Barnes, Kevon Looney and Lonzo Ball.

UCLA Bruins at Pauley Pavilion
UCLA plays in the Edwin W. Pauley Pavilion, or simply Pauley Pavilion, on the UCLA campus in the Westwood neighborhood of Los Angeles. The court they play on is called the Nell and John Wooden Court in honor of former coach John Wooden and his wife, Nell. The arena opened in 1965 and was most recently renovated in 2012. Nicknamed "New Pauley" when it reopened, the venue currently seats 13,800. Along with Bruins men’s and women’s basketball, Pauley Pavilion presents other UCLA campus events and has been slated to serve as the site for the Olympic Village and training in the 2028 Olympic Games. The UCLA arena is also distinct in only raising banners for the Bruins’ national championships rather than displaying any intra-conference achievements.
Tickets for the UCLA Bruins’ 2025-26 regular season can be purchased on Ticketmaster.

The Intuit Dome sets the standard for modern event halls. Most everything is within convenient walk. One negative, no drinking stations or water bottle filling, huh? Staff friendly and helpful, however still learning the machine they operate.
The grab 'n go food service shelves were empty prior to tip-off. The facial recognition to allow entry into the food service was hit-and-miss. The game itself and the sightlines were great.
The basketball court and seat locations are designed well. Great game! The rest of the Intuit Dome is completely unimpressive. No way to track if the facial recognition software correctly charges you for the items you select at the self service refreshment stands. Minimal food selections inside the arena on the main level. Prior to entering the basketball arena, the rest of the Intuit Dome is sterile, antiseptic and unimpressive.
First time at the Intuit Dome...it was magical. The staff was outstanding and extremely friendly. Parking in the VIP section was quick in and quick out. Very organized staff to address your concerns. Only 2 concerns that I had was the App was too intrusive. In speaking with younger guest they even mention the app being too intrusive and a little hard to navigate. Second, concern was the leg room for seating, found it interesting it was built for mostly basketball games and the leg room for folk 5'10 inches or taller left a lot to be desired. I will be back!! The game was great, because our Bruins won. Thank you for a great first time experience!!!
Good, competitive game. UCLA , my team, won. First visit to Intuit Dome.
Intuit dome had terrible food selection and was difficult to purchase. Everyone need to download an app to gain entrance.
As an Architect, I thought the exterior of intuit dome already has a Dated look. The interior concourse was reminiscent of the old Sports Arena. However, the basketball arena was great! We sat on “ The wall”. Next Time we would sit on either side rather then the middle. The Backboard is a real issue when you are about 8 rows from the floor. Also, Get mire “Red Shirts” helpers until you make the app more user friendly.
Great crowd energy! Fantastic amount of noise! If you miss out on viewing this team you are missing out on a team of destiny!!! Super season!!
Great seats, good prices, great game, no problems at all. Great value
I love using the Ticketmaster app for my events. It easy to access your tickets and have the bar code available at the door. Ticketmaster is my go-to site for event tickets.
