TUCSON, Ariz. -- Arizona guard Gabe York did not get much of a chance to test his shot in the first half Thursday, when California limited him to one attempt. The second half, things changed.

York scored all 19 of his points in the second half, including a go-ahead 3-pointer with 17.9 seconds remaining, when the 18th-ranked Wildcats scored the final 11 points for a 64-61 Pac-12 victory over the 25th-ranked Bears at McKale Center.

York went through a triple screen on the baseline, then reversed course and found himself open for a 26-footer from the right wing that gave Arizona a 62-61 lead.

"I don't have any conscience of where I'm at on the court," York said. "And don't get me wrong, coach (Sean) Miller has definitely yelled at me for being too far out. ...

"I just see the basket, and if I'm open, I get a shot up. I was open, and I just tried to get a little more separation."

Thwarted by Cal's aggressive defense at the 3-point arc early, York made three 3-pointers in the final three minutes as the Wildcats overcome an eight-point deficit in the final 1:51.

Arizona forward Ryan Anderson scored 18 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for his 14th double-double of the season, and center Kaleb Tarczewski had 10 points and 12 rebounds.

Tarczewski's two free throws with seven-tenths of a second remaining accounted for the final margin, after Cal guard Tyrone Wallace missed a forced 10-footer.

"Obviously in the first half, I didn't know how my shot was really feeling," York said. "Early in the second half, I got couple of easy ones, saw the ball go in the basket. At that point, the basket is like a sea to me."

York, a senior, has 79 3-pointers this season, 210 in his career.

Freshman Ivan Rabb had 15 points and 13 rebounds for his 10th double-double of the season for the Bears, who had a seven-game winning streak end.

Both Arizona (23-7, 11-6 Pac-12) and Cal (21-9, 11-6) can clinch a bye in the first round of the Pac-12 tournament next week with a victory in their final regular-season game Saturday.

"(York) got his head up and made some plays," Cal coach Cuonzo Martin said. "It was a poor job of our part chasing him off the screen. We have to get him off the (3-point) line. He can't catch and shoot a 3-pointer."

Rabb hit the first 3-pointer of his career on his first attempt to give Cal a 54-50 lead with 3:18 remaining, and guard Jordan Mathews made two free throws on the next possession for a 56-53 lead.

Mathews countered York's first 3-pointer of the game with his own 3-pointer, and Wallace's steal and layup gave Cal a 61-53 lead with 1:51 remaining.

Anderson made a layup and a free throw, and after a Wallace turnover, York hit another 3-pointer from the left wing with 1:00 remaining to cut the Bears' lead to 61-59.

Cal freshman Jaylen Brown committed an offensive foul, his fifth foul, to turn the ball back to Arizona with 31.2 seconds remaining.

York hit his 3-pointer, and Tarczewski made two free throws after Wallace's driving layup with seven seconds left was no good.

"I think that's our best win of the season," Miller said, "and the reason I feel that way is because we beat an outstanding team. They have all the parts of a championship-type team."

Cal had a 44-31 rebounding edge and had 18 offensive rebounds that led to 28 second-chance points. Arizona entered leading the Pac-12 in rebounding margin in conference games at plus-9 per game.

Cal's Jabari Bird had 13 points and Mathews had 12. Brown, Cal's leading scorer, had five points in 15 minutes after battling foul trouble the entire game. He played five minutes in the first half.
