The 2015 NBA draft featured two former UCLA Bruins. Kevon Looney was taken with the last pick of the first round by the reigning NBA champions, the Golden State Warriors. Norman Powell was selected in second round with the 46th overall pick by the Milwaukee Bucks. Shortly after drafting Powell, the Bucks traded him and a 2017 first rounder to the Toronto Raptors for Greivis Vasquez. Looney fell considerably on draft night. Most analysts had the lengthy forward being selected as a lottery pick.
