UCLA basketball is still drawing big stars in the crowd -- even without the Ball family -- with Caitlyn Jenner sitting courtside while the Bruins took on the Cincinnati Bearcats.
Jenner sat courtside with her publicist and longtime friend Alan Nierob -- a UCLA grad who's a big shot on campus (he's on the board of visitors).
Unfortunately for Cait and Alan, the Bruins lost -- perhaps because all 3 players from the infamous China shoplifting fiasco are still not on the court.
As you know .
