In total, that is eight scholarship players who will not be playing at UCLA next season.
Now, here is a look at the players who will be returning from this past season's team.

Eric Dailey Jr. will be a junior next season
Skyy Clark will be a senior next season
Trent Perry will be a sophomore next season
Early prediction on UCLAโs 2025-26 starting five:
โ Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) April 4, 2025
Donovan Dent, Skyy Clark, Eric Dailey, Tyler Bilodeau, Xavier Booker
Bruins are banking that they can resurrect Booker like they did with Johnny Juzang when he transferred from Kentucky. https://t.co/6zZ5w5yu16
Having watched a ton of Michigan State basketball these past two seasons, it is doubtful that Xavier Booker will be a full-time starter next season.
Here now is a look at the players who have committed to transferring to UCLA the upcoming season.
Donovan Dent will play basketball for UCLA next season.
