LOS ANGELES (AP) — Lauren Betts did not play for top-ranked UCLA against No. 22 Michigan State because of a right foot injury. The Big Ten’s second-leading scorer sat out Sunday’s game at Pauley Pavilion and was wearing a boot on her foot. The 6-foot-7 starting center is day-to-day. Betts missed two games in late December with a minor leg injury.
