ASU Men’s Basketball: Preseason Power Rankings
By Trevor Booth
11. California Golden Bears
The Bears won’t have a lot to look forward to this season after losing both star forward Ivan Rabb to the NBA Draft and head coach Cuonzo Martin to the Missouri Tigers.
Along with Rabb, guard Jabari Bird graduated after averaging 14.3 points and 5 rebounds as a senior as well as point guard Charlie Moore who transferred to Kansas after starting all 34 games his freshman year.
Returning for first-year head coach Wyking Jones is the low-post combo of seniors Kingsley Okoroh and Kentucky transfer Marcus Lee. The duo will provide some stability to an otherwise inexeperienced roster.
