UCLA men's basketball team may be losing more than just seniors

/ STAFF WRITER

The senior night celebration on Saturday at Pauley Pavilion was already a crowded affair.

Bryce Alford will culminate a four-year career that placed him fifth on UCLA’s career scoring list. Senior Isaac Hamilton, Coach Steve Alford’s first recruit at UCLA, will be lauded for his hefty contributions.

In all likelihood, Saturday’s regular season finale against Washington State will be Lonzo Ball’s final game in Pauley Pavilion before the freshman enters the 2017 NBA draft.

Freshman TJ Leaf may have already played his final home game at UCLA.

A lottery pick should he choose to join Ball in the draft, according to an NBA scout, Leaf is a game-time decision after spraining his left ankle in Wednesday’s win over Washington.
