What a career Bryce Alford has had with UCLA Basketball. In his first season he played behind current NBA pro Kyle Anderson as the Bruins won the only Pac-12 Championship in his dad’s, Head Coach Steve Alford’s, tenure by winning the Pac-12 Tournament. That was capped off with a return to the Sweet Sixteen in NCAA Tournament.
With Anderson jumping to the NBA, Bryce took over at point guard. His second year proved to be a lot tougher as the Bruins went from a 28-win team to a 22-win team.
The Bruins were not a lock for the NCAA Tournament, but squeaked in and returned to the Sweet Sixteen, only to get manhandled by Gonzaga.
