Mick Cronin and the UCLA Bruins men’s basketball team picked up a big addition to the team on Tuesday. Dominick Harris, a graduate transfer from Murrieta California has committed to the team in an official form.
Harris will have two years of eligibility left. He was with Loyola Marymount last season and scored 14.3 points per game. Before that, he spent three seasons at Gonzaga. He was a medical redshirt in his second season at Gonzaga.
As a redshirt junior last season, he was eighth in the West Coast Conference in scoring. During his high school years, Harris was ranked 59th in the high school recruiting class.

Coach Cronin had this to say about the addition:
“We’re thrilled to have Dominick Harris join our program. He’s a talented and experienced player who grew up in Southern California and wants to be at UCLA. Dominick really thrived on offense last season, particularly as a deep threat. Clearly, he adds an element to our offense with his ability to make threes at a high rate. He took some major strides as a player last season, leading the WCC in three-point shooting percentage. But we also believe he can make a major impact on the defensive end and really help our team in a variety of ways.”
The addition of Harris is the sixth transfer for the Bruins heading into the 2024-2025. These, along with three freshmen will make for a whole new look when the Bruins take the court.
