The 2019–20 UCLA Bruins women's basketball team represented the University of California, Los Angeles during the 2019–20 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Bruins, led by ninth year head coach Cori Close, played their home games at Pauley Pavilion and competed as members of the Pac-12 Conference.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the NCAA Tournament was canceled. The Bruins finished the season 26–5 and 14–4 in conference play for a second-place tie in the Pac-12. They advanced to the semifinals of the Pac-12 Tournament, where they lost to Stanford. Had the NCAA Tournament not been canceled, the Bruins were projected to receive a #3-seed and to host a 1st/2nd Round pod. UCLA's overall winning percentage of .839 was its highest since the 2010–11 season, when the Bruins finished 28–5 (.848).
The Bruins were 17–0 when scoring at least 70 points and 22–0 when holding opponents to under 67 points.
