4. The Bigs Down Low

It is insane how much talent the Bruins have in the front court for both the women’s and men’s team.

On the UCLA Women’s Basketball team, the Bruins are led by Monique BIllings who is dominating down low. So far this season she is 5th in the Pac-12 in scoring (17.0 ppg) and third in rebounds (10.2 rpg). But she is not alone. Billings is getting help from Paulina Hersler and Lajahna Drummer.

The Men started the season with Thomas Welsh and TJ Leaf, but had reinforcements with the return of Ike Anigbogu from knee injury.

All three of these Bruins are making huge individual impacts with this team. Leaf is providing offense, Anigbogu is bringing defense while Welsh is doing a little bit if both.

If you want to see some excellent bigs GET OUT TO PAULEY!!!
