No. 3 UCLA hits the road to play Iowa today at 2 p.m. ET at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. This is the first time the pair is officially meeting since the Bruins joined the Big Ten conference in August 2024.

Read on for all the information on how to live stream the game and how to follow college basketball on Peacock all season long.
UCLA's 23-game winning streak ended on February 13 after a 71-60 loss to No. 1 USC. However, the Bruins are coming off back-to-back wins after a 75-69 victory over Michigan State on February 16 and a 70-55 win on Thursday over No. 25 Illinois.
The Bruins were named the No.1 overall seed in the DI Women's Basketball Committee's first Top 16 reveal a week ago and have two games left in the regular season after they play the Hawkeyes —February 26 at Wisconsin and a March 1 rematch vs No. 4 USC at home. Currently, both UCLA (conf. 13-1) and USC (conf. 14-1) are tied in the Big Ten standings with one conference loss.
Star junior center Lauren Betts posted 22 points, 7 rebounds and 6 blocks in the Bruins' win over Illinois, returning from her one-game absence due to a foot injury. She also broke the program record for blocks in a single season after finishing the game with six blocks, bringing her season total to 67 overall. Betts is second in the Big Ten in scoring (19.7 pts/gm) and third in Big Ten in rebounding (9.7 reb/gm).
In the fourth quarter vs Illinois, junior guard Kiki Rice scored 10 of her 16 points. Rice put up five rebounds, four assists and two blocks in the win.
Graduate student forward Angela Dugalić also contributed double digits on Thursday with 10 points, eight rebounds and four assists. She's averaging 7.8 points per game in the regular season.

The Hawkeyes are coming off an 86-78 OT loss to No. 8 Ohio State on Monday. They rallied from 12 points down (69-57) with 1:38 left in regulation to force overtime at 74-74, but were outscored 12-4 in OT. After they face UCLA at home, they have two regular season games left — a February 26 matchup at Michigan and a March 2 contest vs Wisconsin. Iowa is 8-7 in conference play this season.
Senior guard Lucy Olsen led Iowa with 27 points against Ohio State. She scored 11 points (three, back-to-back-to-back 3-pointers and two FT) during Iowa's 17-5 run to close regulation and force OT. Olsen — who transferred to Iowa this season after a 3-year run at Villanova — is leading the Hawkeyes in points per game (17.8 pts/gm), assists (5.1 ast/gm) and minutes (34.3) this season.
Senior guard Sydney Affolter is ranked sixth in the Big Ten for average rebounds, with 8.7, just under UCLA's Lauren Bett's 9.1 reb/gm. She snagged 15 total rebounds when the Hawkeyes took on Ohio State.
Iowa senior F/C Addison O'Grady knows UCLA's Lauren Betts well — the two were high school teammates at Grandview High School in Aurora, CO.
O'Grady and Betts played together for three seasons — O'Grady graduated in 2021, Betts in 2022. Sunday's game will be the first time they've shared the court since high school.
Ahead of the matchup O'Grady said: 'For me not to be the tallest girl on my high school basketball team is kind of crazy - not to be the tallest girl in my high school even [O'Grady is 6'4, Betts is 6'7] … And then playing basketball together was just crazy. Who has two (6'4) plus people on their team? (Sunday) might bring me back to high school days, now that I'm a (college) senior especially. It'll be such a weird and really fun reunion."
When: Sunday, February 23
Where: Carver-Hawkeye Arena, Iowa City, Iowa
Time: 2 PM ET

Tom Brady Praises Angel Reese By Placing Her On His Mount Rushmore Of 'GOAT' Athletes
Women's basketball has experienced a surge in popularity over the past several years, largely due to the rise of basketball superstars Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark. While eyes were on them before the 2023 NCAA National Championship game, where LSU defeated Iowa 102-85, the buzz generated from that matchup sent their stardom into a different stratosphere. Advertisement Now, Angel Reese and Clark, both sophomores in the WNBA, are continuing to push boundaries, shatter records, and advocate for women athletes everywhere — and NFL legend Tom Brady has only positive things to say about it. Angel Reese Is On Tom Brady's Mount Rushmore Of 'GOAT' Athletes MEGA In an interview with Bleacher Report posted to its TikTok account, Brady answered a question about who would be on his personal Mount Rushmore of GOAT (Greatest of All Time) athletes. Of course, the Super Bowl champion began with classic answers, such as "Tiger [Woods]" and "Michael Jordan." Advertisement He continued, "What Rory McIlroy has done, I love that. Shohei Ohtani, what he's done has been unbelievable. Barry Bonds, he went to my high school. I was the biggest fan of him growing up. Michael Phelps, I love him. Michael Johnson." Then, Brady shifted his focus to powerhouse female athletes, mentioning the Las Vegas Aces' A'ja Wilson before adding Reese and Clark to the list as well. "Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, this little thing they got going, I love that. It's been really exciting," he said. Are Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark Rivals? Instagram | Angel Reese Although both Reese and Clark are quick to downplay the "rivalry" label, a clear competitive fire defines their on-court matchups. In a previous interview, Reese offered fans insight into her on-court mindset. Advertisement "I don't think people realize it's not personal. Once we get out between those lines, like, if I see you walking down the street, it's like 'Hey, girl, what's up? Let's hang out.' I think people just take it like we hate each other," she said. "Me and Caitlin Clark don't hate each other. I want everybody to understand that. It's just a super competitive game and I would just wish people realized that." Reese added, "Once I get between those lines, there's no friends. I have plenty of friends on the court that I talk to outside of the game. But when I get between those lines, we're not friends. We're not buddies. I'm going to talk trash to you. I'm going to do whatever it takes to get in your head the whole entire game, but after the game, we can kick it. I don't think people really realize that and that's fine, I'll take the villain role." Angel Reese Has Been Playing Against Caitlin Clark For Years Instagram | Angel Reese Clark, who's been forced to sit out the WNBA's regular season for at least two weeks after suffering a left quad injury, also opened up about her on-court dynamic with Reese, stating they "have always been great competitors." Advertisement "There's definitely that competitive fire. Both of us want to win more than anything, and that's how it should be when you're a competitor and you get into a situation like this, whether it was the national championship, whether it's the Elite 8," Clark said. "I think that's the main similarity is how competitive we are. We both grew up loving this game, and we're going to do anything we can to help our teams win." Reese Broke Another WNBA Record Reese, who as a rookie became the first player to record a double-double in a WNBA All-Star Game, broke another record during her second year in late May 2025. Advertisement During the Chicago Sky's game against the Phoenix Mercury, in which she finished with 13 points and 15 rebounds, the league announced Reese became the fastest player in the WNBA's history to reach 500+ points and 500+ rebounds. The 23-year-old accomplished the impressive feat in just 38 games, soaring past the previous record holder, Tina Charles, who earned the honor after 44 games in 2011. Reese Has A New Sneaker Out The "Bayou Barbie" is winning off the court, too, with her latest collaboration with Reebok, the Engine A: Pretty Gritty edition, hitting basketball courts worldwide in early June 2025. Advertisement On social media, the footwear and apparel company posted a clip of Reese's personal logo—the letter "A" cleverly merged with the letter "R" and a halo—with the caption, "Just the beginning," hinting at the release of her full signature shoe, expected to hit retailers in 2026. Reese shared her own excitement on social media, calling the design "fire" before posting a special message for her millions of followers. "It's like my momma named me so perfect because she knew this moment would come!! LOVE LOVE LOVE," she wrote.
