Adams was coming back to the UCLA Basketball team for his junior year… until he realized that he could go in the first round of the NBA Draft. Adams was an unsung hero from that 2012 recruiting class as he came out of nowhere with a hot hand that led the Bruins in scoring when Muhammad was waiting to hear about his eligibility.

In his sophomore year, Adams came alive and helped the Bruins return to the Sweet 16 with first-year coach Steve Alford. His production caught the eye of several NBA scouts which led to him declaring and eventually getting chosen 14th in the 1st Round of the 2013 NBA Draft.

Adams played 30 games in his rookie year, and only 2 last season as he spent a good amount of time in the D-League. This off-season he will have surgery to repair cartilage on his right knee.
