Baron Davis Joins Lonzo Ball in Endorsing Earl Watson as Next UCLA HC

Another noteworthy UCLA Bruins alumnus threw his support behind Earl Watson replacing Steve Alford as the team's head coach.

Speaking with TMZ Sports, Baron Davis said he'd be willing to join Watson's staff and work for free if the school brought Watson aboard.

UCLA announced on Dec. 31 it had fired Alford, with Murry Bartow serving as the interim head coach.

The Bruins have yet to hire a permanent coach, and Watson would be a logical choice to take over. He played four years at UCLA and had a lengthy playing career before transitioning to coaching.
