TUCSON, Ariz. — Henri Veesaar scored 22 points, Caleb Love added 21 and No. 24 Arizona pulled away for a 113-100 win over rival Arizona State. The Wildcats won the first meeting this season in a game that got so testy at the end Arizona State coach Bobby Hurley pulled his players off the floor before the handshake line. The rematch had far less animosity, and the scrappy Sun Devils managed to keep it close late despite being down to five scholarship players after starting guard Adam Miller was injured in the first 28 seconds. Arizona wore down the Sun Devils, shooting 59% with a 52-30 advantage in the paint to earn a bye into the quarterfinals of the Big 12 Tournament. Alston Mason led Arizona State with 33 points.
