Stanford jumped out to a 15-2 lead and never trailed as it snapped Pac-12 Conference counterpart Washington's three-game winning streak with an 87-69 victory Sunday in Stanford, Calif.
The Cardinal (14-8, 7-5 Pac-12) weathered a game-high 30 points from Terrell Brown Jr., the conference's leading scorer this season, and countered with a balanced attack.
While Brown was the one of only two Huskies to score in double-figures -- joined by PJ Fuller with 11 points -- three Cardinal players scored at least 17 points. Jaiden Delaire led with 18 points and James Keefe and Harrison Ingram each had 17.
Spencer Jones chipped in another 12 points. Brandon Angel scored nine off the bench on 4-of-4 shooting from the floor.
Ingram also posted a double-double with 10 rebounds. Delaire grabbed eight rebounds, and Michael O'Connell finished with six points, six assists and four rebounds.
Fueling the Cardinal's balanced offense was a torrid 11-of-27 shooting from 3-point range. Delaire and Jones each made three from beyond the arc, combining for as many successful 3-point shots together as Washington made as a team.
The Huskies (12-9, 7-4) made 6 of 22 from outside, three of which were on Fuller's seven attempts. Washington struggled to connect from deep other than Fuller, and besides Brown the Huskies combined to shoot 14 of 46 from the floor overall.
Brown went 13 of 23, grabbed seven rebounds, dished six assists and made five steals. Sunday marked Brown's fourth game scoring at least 30 points this season. He has scored in double figures in every outing this season.
Brown and Fuller combined to lead Washington on a 14-2 run after falling behind 15-2 in the game's opening minutes, but Stanford responded with an 11-2 spurt of its own. The Huskies never cut the deficit to fewer than seven points for the rest of the way, and trailed by a double-digit margin throughout the second half.
Stanford's lead ballooned to as many as 28 points. The Cardinal's 87 points were their most since beating Dartmouth on Dec. 16, 89-78, and a season-high for points scored in regulation.
