UCLA split its basketball roster into two teams for a scrimmage Tuesday evening, and one thing became readily apparent.
Either would have beaten last year’s starting lineup.
These Bruins are deeper, more talented and feistier than the freshman-heavy bunch that finished with a losing record. Bringing in six veteran transfers certainly helped.
A year after UCLA struggled to shoot, the Bruins showed during the intrasquad scrimmage inside Pauley Pavilion all the ways they might be tough to top. They can make a high percentage of three-pointers.
