Georgia basketball has its first winning momentum in four weeks after dominating Vanderbilt 76-64 on Wednesday.

The Bulldogs (15-11, 5-8 SEC) snapped a six-game losing streak with the road win, shooting a strong 28 of 53 from the floor.

UGA opened the game on a 12-4 run and never looked back, as the Commodores (7-19, 2-11) never got within single digits after the 12:29 mark in the first half.

“It’s really gratifying,” Georgia coach Mike White said. “It feels great to get back in that win column. ... That’s a happy locker room.”

Georgia asserted its dominance for good with a 12-0 run in the second half. RJ Melendez nailed a strong layup over two Vanderbilt defenders to spark the run.
