2018-2019 UCLA Basketball Player Profile: Prince Ali

December 3, 2015 was the day that the entire sports world learned the name, Prince Ali. On this day at the basketball mecca that is Pauley Pavilion, Prince Ali drove down the lane and dunked on the entire Kentucky basketball program.

OK...OK...from this point forward my hyperbole will end. Ali didn’t actually dunk on the entire Kentucky program, but it sure seemed like he did. What Ali did do on that day was help the UCLA Bruins shock the college basketball world and beat the then-No. 1 ranked Kentucky Wildcats. Ali also gave Bruins fans a lot to look forward to in regards to the freshman guard and the talent that he looked like he was going to bring for years to come at UCLA.
