LOS ANGELES -- Jordin Canada knew in the third quarter she was inching closer to a second consecutive triple-double. Her teammates couldnt deliver it for her.She finished with 19 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists to help No. 9 UCLA rout Cal Poly 80-64 on Sunday.Canada just missed equaling Hall of Famer Ann Meyers for the most triple-doubles in school history. The junior guard had 11 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists in a victory over Southern on Friday, the sixth triple-double at UCLA. Meyers had triple-doubles in 1977 and 1978.I was just focusing on the things I could control, Canada said. My teammates tried very hard. Im glad they tried to have my back on that.Monique Billings added 15 points before fouling out, and Nicole Kornet and Kennedy Burke scored 14 points each for the Bruins (3-1), who never trailed in earning their second straight blowout. They beat Southern by 48 points on Friday after opening the season with a 27-point win over Pacific.Canada was still in the game in the fourth because the Bruins only have nine players due to injuries. Coach Cori Close didnt want to make a big deal of Canadas shot at producing the Pac-12s first consecutive triple-double since 2002, but she didnt mind her players trying to make it happen, either.Sometimes they were taking shots that were rushed because they didnt want to take a couple extra dribbles, Close said.Lynn Leaupepe led Cal Poly with 22 points and Gabby Grupalo added 13 points. The Mustangs (1-3) endured scoring droughts of 3:53 in the first quarter and 4:23 in the second before trailing 44-22 at halftime.Canada did most of her damage in the third quarter, leading the Bruins with 12 points, including their first six in the period. She scored off her own steal before setting up Ally Rosenblums basket that pushed UCLAs lead to 65-39. Kornets 3-pointer made it 70-42 heading into the fourth.Shes a creator, said Leaupepe, who occasionally played with and against Canada in high school. I give her a lot of props. She knows how to play and works hard.Canada had several chances to get a 10th assist, but her teammates failed to score in the games final 3:58.Well get it next time because Im pretty sure there will be plenty of more opportunities for her, Kornet said.POLL IMPLICATIONSThe Bruins should remain in the top 10 when the AP rankings are released Monday, helped by the fact that No. 11 Stanford and 12th-ranked Florida State also lost. UCLA lost at No. 2 Baylor by 14 points before demolishing Southern and Cal Poly to end the week.SHE SAID ITUCLA is super talented and they have a great shot at being some representatives on the West Coast that maybe can sneak through and get to the Final Four. -- Cal Poly coach Faith Mimnaugh.SHOOT ITThe Mustangs tossed up 69 shots to the Bruins 65, which annoyed Close.Were lucky we shoot the ball reasonably well, she said, emphasizing the Bruins have to improve their defensive rebounding.WINNING A QUARTERThe Mustangs outscored the Bruins 22-10 in the fourth, when UCLA missed 16 of 20 shots. Cal Poly had its best shooting quarter, hitting 47 percent.

Ted Williams Rangers Jersey . PAUL, Minn. MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Timberwolves keep adding big men to their roster in free agency, fortifying the depth behind their starters and calling into question the futures of a couple of notable names.The Wolves agreed to terms with free agent forward Jordan Hill on a two-year, $8 million contract on Wednesday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team has not announced the deal.Hill joins Cole Aldrich, who signed his three-year, $22 million deal on Wednesday, as rugged post players added by new coach and president Tom Thibodeau and GM Scott Layden in their first foray into free agency. They give the Timberwolves some healthy backups to Karl-Anthony Towns and Gorgui Dieng, something the team did not have when the market opened.The additions only crowd the frontcourt further when factoring in veterans Kevin Garnett and Nikola Pekovic.Garnett, the franchise icon, returned to Minnesota in a trade with Brooklyn two years ago and was given a heros welcome upon his arrival. He served as a valuable mentor to Towns, Dieng, Andrew Wiggins and the rest of the young Timberwolves last season, helping them understand the work that it takes to have long-term success in the NBA.But the 40-year-old was only able to play in 38 games last season because of achy knees. After being acquired in the trade in February 2015, Garnett was only able to play in five games because of knee issues.He is under contract for $8 million next season.dddddddddddd If he returns, it would be a record 22nd season in the league for him.Garnett also spoke about wanting to get into ownership with the Timberwolves. Those talks could not happen until after he retires, but owner Glen Taylor recently sold 15 percent of the team to Chinese entrepreneur Lizhang Jhiang and New York real estate mogul Meyer Orbach to fortify his position. Taylor remains in the market for someone to come in as a minority partner and eventually succeed him as majority owner of the Wolves, but Garnett for the meantime is on the outside looking in.Pekovic has struggled with injuries even more than Garnett over the past few seasons. An arthritic ankle has made it difficult for the burly center to stay on the court. He has played in 42 games combined over the last two seasons and has only played one stretch of at least 10 games in a row since January 2014.Pekovic still has two years and nearly $24 million left on his deal.The Wolves also have third-year power forward Adreian Payne on the roster, creating a log jam in the frontcourt.Hill averaged 8.8 points and 6.2 rebounds for the Indiana Pacers last year. In his seven years in the league, Hill has proven to be a solid rebounder and defender, two traits Thibodeau was looking to add.The move gives the Timberwolves the maximum 15 guaranteed contracts.
