UCLA has added a pair of guards to its 2020-21 recruiting class, including Kentucky transfer Johnny Juzang.
The Bruins received a signed national letter of intent from Jaylen Clark, a 6-foot-5 guard from Rancho Cucamonga, California. Juzang, a 6-6 guard from Los Angeles, returns home after playing his freshman year for the Wildcats.
Clark averaged 18.5 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists as a high school senior, leading Etiwanda to a 30-4 record and a berth in the CIF-SS Open Division regional final.
Juzang started two of 28 games for Kentucky. He averaged 2.9 points and 1.9 rebounds. At Harvard-Westlake as a junior, he averaged 23 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3.4 assists.
Clark and Juzang join an incoming class that includes guard Daishen Nix from Las Vegas. The 6-5 guard recently ended his prep career at Trinity International School. He signed a national letter of intent in November 2019.
