Dylan Andrews - Starting for UCLA Andrews is back in UCLA's starting five Friday night against Cal Sate-Fullerton.

Impact Andrews made his return to action on Wednesday night after missing two games, playing 12 minutes and scoring three points. He'll return to his role as the starting point guard, a spot he'll look to hold down throughout the remainder of the season.

Impact The forward won't get the chance to play in his first game of the season Friday night. He figures to be a rotational member of the Bruins' front court when he does return, but that won't be until at least Nov. 26.

Tyler Bilodeau - Scores 20 against the Bengals Bilodeau contributed 20 points (8-14 FG, 4-4 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 84-70 victory over Idaho State.

Impact Bilodeau converted on all four attempts from range, closing with 20 points, four rebounds and two assists as the Bruins took down the Bengals on Wednesday night. The 6-foot-9 junior transfer from Oregon State has made a seamless transition to his new home, averaging 16.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 1.2 steals across five starts with the Bruins.

Sebastian Mack - Nearly perfect at the charity stripe Mack closed with 21 points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 15-16 FT), two assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 84-70 victory over Idaho State.

Impact Mack got to the line early and often converting on 15-of-16 free throw attempts, closing with 21 points, two assists and a steal during Wednesday's win over the Bengals.

Kobe Johnson - Modest start to season Johnson is averaging 7.2 points and 5.2 rebounds across 24.2 minutes through five games to begin the 2024-25 season for UCLA.

Impact Johnson is in his first season at UCLA and serves as the primary small forward for the Bruins, but due to a relatively soft schedule (and a few games in foul trouble), his production -- at least in terms of scoring -- is down to start the year. While he's just 2-for-9 from distance to start the year, Johnson's overall efficiency is up, as he's shooting a career-best 51.9 percent from the field. He's also third on the team in rebounding.

Impact Mara made the most of Friday's lopsided affair against Lehigh, posting a career-best 16 points across just 16 minutes of action. The 7-foot-3 center remains firmly behind Tyler Bilodeau at the five spot, but he may be able to jump William Kyle's spot in the Bruins' rotation if he continues to shine on limited opportunities.

The 6-foot-8 sophomore has taken over the starting power forward spot after coming off the bench in half of UCLA's games last season, and he has taken advantage of his newfound role. Through four games, Bailey is averaging 11 points, 6.5 rebounds, two assists and one steal, beating all of his marks from last season.
