That pretty much decimates the team pending what Bona does of course. It will be reset for Mick Cronin but that’s what he’s good at and they certainly won’t be devoid of talent. 2024 Bruins will look a lot different that’s for sure.

He had a much better freshman year than the Peyton Watson didnt he?? and Payton still got drafted in the first round and has a job in the league?? I thought Watson looked horrible last year Where Amari obviously showed some real talent this year.
Or am I wrong here?? my evaluation is derived from a very limited sample size. Very.
kaboom?
With all due respect to Bailey, I think this really underscores just how bad the NBA has got. I think this guy is a really good player. He has a lot of talent. But if you look at his numbers and you look at his game, there is room for a ton of improvement. Is this really a first round pick? If so, I'm sorry, the NBA just isn't the same anymore.
This is why getting Fibleuil was so important. There was always the chance that Bailey could leave. He elevated his game in the second half of the season and even more so when Jaylen Clark went down. Hopefully, Bona isn't scared off by the pending commitment of Aday.
Bailey is gone. "Amari Bailey, a potential first round pick, is entering the 2023 NBA Draft, his mother, Johanna Leia, told ESPN, and his college career at UCLA is over. "He is not testing the waters," Leia said. "He's full-fledged in declaring for the draft."
Best of luck to Bailey as he moves on to the NBA.
