Is Kris Wilkes the first of multiple UCLA Bruins who will enter their names in the 2019 NBA Draft? Per CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein, Wilkes will hire an agent and enter his name in the 2019 NBA Draft pool. Since Wilkes appears set to officially hire an agent, he will not be able to return to UCLA to play basketball.

Wilkes led the Bruins in scoring this year, averaging 17.3 points per game and 4.8 rebounds per game.

Wilkes struggled some this year as both his field goal percentage and three-point percentage decreased from last season to this season.
