Quade Green scored a game-high 17 points as Washington defeated California 62-51 Saturday night in a battle of Pacific-12 Conference bottom-dwellers in Seattle.

Jamal Bey added 15 points and a team-high nine rebounds, and Marcus Tsohonis had 10 points and four assists for the Huskies (5-17, 4-13 Pac-12), who moved a game-and-a-half ahead of the last-place Golden Bears (8-17, 3-15).

The Huskies, whose zone defense limited Cal to 26.7 percent shooting from the field (16 of 60), have won two of their past three games and conclude the regular season with three games at the Arizona schools in the next week, with two at Arizona State and the finale at Arizona.

Matt Bradley scored 13 points and Andre Kelly added 12 points and 12 rebounds for Cal. Bradley, who entered the weekend second in the conference in scoring with 18.9 points per game, was 3 of 16 from the field and missed all four of his 3-point attempts.

The Golden Bears, who wrap up the regular season with home games against the Oregon schools, dropped to 1-11 on the road.

The Huskies took a 30-23 halftime lead as Cal shot just 25 percent (8 of 32) before the intermission, including 1 of 6 from 3-point range.

Washington extended the lead to 42-28 on a 3-pointer by Tsohonis with 14:06 remaining before Cal put together an 8-0 run.

The Golden Bears closed to within three, 45-42, on two free throws by Kuany Kuany with 9:07 left before Green hit a 3-pointer, and Washington never led by fewer than four points the rest of the way.

Washington's Travis Rice, the son of Huskies assistant coach Dave Rice, got the start on senior day and made his only field-goal attempt, a 3-pointer.

The Huskies avenged an 84-78 loss to Cal on Jan. 9 in Berkeley, Calif.
