Rutgers had not held a lead for 127 straight minutes of game time and 12 days of real time when Dylan Harper rose up from behind the arc 53 seconds into the second half of a do-or-die meeting with UCLA at Jersey Mike’s Arena.

We hand-tracked all of Rutgers' star Dylan Harper's passes to learn more about his playmaking potential ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft.

As five-stars signing on to play their lone collegiate season together, the Rutgers duo of Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey have taken the draft world by storm. And on Monday, they bounced back from lower performances in a big win over UCLA.

Leading scorer Tyler Bilodeau scores only six points, all on free throws, and the Bruins suffer their fourth consecutive loss.

The first half ended with UCLA leading 33-30 – Rutgers cut it to three when Bailey threw down an alley-oop dunk on a lob from Harper that brought the crowd to its feet with 26 seconds to go in the half. The Scarlet Knights never led before halftime, but they were within seven points the entire first half.

That is what Rutgers did, snapping a three-game losing streak, and getting a much-needed win ahead of a two-game road trip that could decide the team’s fate in the postseason. The sky was falling for Rutgers and its best players stepped up when needed most.
