The UCLA Bruins men’s basketball team has been incredibly active in the transfer portal, bringing in five big names. The women’s team has been the opposite, awfully quiet, although Charisma Osborne recently heard her name called during the WNBA Draft.
But, the Bruins women’s team got a massive addition in the transfer portal, landing Washington State guard Charlisse Leger-Walker, per her social media account.
She was having a strong season for the Cougars, averaging 13.2 PPG with 6.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists before being ruled out for the year in January due to an injury.
Now, she decided to put off a pro career and play one more year in college.
She will be a big boost to a UCLA program fresh off a Sweet 16 run and getting a ton of players back, including Lauren Betts.
So, Cori Close’s team adds an experienced player looking to make another run at the NCAA Tournament.
