By Adam Rittenberg, ESPN: UCLA coach Mick Cronin criticized the NBA and the G League on Friday for their pursuit of Daishen Nix, a former Bruins recruit who signed with the G League in April 2020.
Nix, a point guard from Las Vegas and ESPN’s No. 21 recruit in the 2020 class, committed to play for UCLA in August 2019 and signed a national letter of intent with the program that November. But he ended up going pro and played this past season for the NBA G League Ignite, averaging 8.8 points, 5.3 assists and 5.3 rebounds in 26.5 minutes over 15 games.
