Pac-12 Tournament 2017: Semifinals Scores, Championship Bracket and Schedule

The 2017 Pac-12 tournament continued Friday evening at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, with a pair of compelling semifinal matchups, with a late game between UCLA and Arizona standing out on the evening's bill. 

But before those two Pac-12 powers could hit the floor, the top-seeded Oregon Ducks and California Golden Bears shined in the spotlight with a place in the conference final on the line. 

Below, you'll find a rundown of the evening's scores as well as an updated schedule with the Pac-12 proceedings slated to come to a close Saturday night.

The Golden Bears dropped both regular-season contests against the Ducks, but the third time was not a charm for Cuonzo Martin's squad. 

Although the Golden Bears lingered within striking distance all game long, they couldn't deliver a haymaker and slip past the tournament's No. 1 seed. 

One big reason was Cal's inability to get anything going inside the arc. 

While the Golden Bears knocked down 8-of-15 attempts from three, they shot a paltry 14-of-36 on two-point looks and missed eight free throws. 

Against a Ducks team that featured four double-figure scorers, those shortcomings were simply too significant. 

Tyler Dorsey paced Oregon's victorious effort with 23 points, while Dylan Ennis dropped 16 points. Dillon Brooks and Chris Boucher also got in on the action and scored 10 points apiece. 

Currently the fifth-ranked team in the nation, the Ducks could have a shot at snagging a No. 1 seed if they enter Selection Sunday with a Pac-12 title in tow.

The Bruins got the best of the Wildcats on Feb. 25, but that wasn't the case Friday night in Sin City. 

With a berth in the Pac-12 title game on the line, Arizona showed up with a complete effort and trounced UCLA 86-75 to set up a date with Oregon on Saturday night. 

Lauri Markkanen shined in the win and finished with 29 points (10-of-22 shooting, 4-of-10 from three) and six rebounds. 

However, he wasn't the lone Wildcat who basked in the spotlight. 

Allonzo Trier was also locked in, and he thrived to the tune of 20 points, four boards and four dimes as Arizona's well-rounded offense proved to be too much for UCLA's flimsy defense. 

Speaking of the Bruins, Lonzo Ball was in a noticeable funk all night. All told, Ball mustered eight points and six assists while committing four turnovers as Isaac Hamilton (20 points) and T.J. Leaf (15 points) did the heavy lifting. 

The Wildcats will now prep for the Ducks, who throttled them by 27 points on Feb. 4.
