After sitting out against UCLA, Mychal Mulder came in with a chip on his shoulder against Valparaiso, and capitalized.
Some have blamed it on defensive struggles, others believe it may have been due to lack of ball-handling or passing ability against the Bruins’ elite backcourt. Regardless, Mulder never entered the game against UCLA, and the fans were heated.
Judging by a deleted tweet immediately following the game, Mulder wasn’t a happy camper either.
Nonetheless, Coach Cal gave him another shot against Valparaiso, and the Windsor, Canada native proved he belonged on the court.
