LAS VEGAS — JuJu Watkins scored 17 points and grabbed eight rebounds and No. 5 Southern California defeated Arizona 65-62 in a Pac-12 Tournament quarterfinal game.

But after Helena Pueyo's 3-pointer made it 63-60, USC's Kaitlyn Davis' layup pushed the Trojans' lead to five and put the game out of reach. Pueyo finished with 19 points to lead Arizona.
