UCLA basketball signs three on first day of early signing period
UCLA’s basketball team received signed letters of intent from shooting guards David Singleton and Jules Bernard and center David Nwuba on Wednesday, the first day of the early-signing period.
Singleton, who is 6 feet 4, is from Torrance Bishop Montgomery High; Bernard, 6-6, plays for Los Angeles Windward; Nwuba, 6-10, is from Huntington (W.Va.) Prep.
Josh Gershon, the national recruiting analyst for Scout.com, described Singleton as a skilled scorer, whereas Bernard is more of a slasher and rebounder with potential to become an elite defender.
“I think they really complement each other well,” Gershon said. “They both have All-Pac-12-type upside.”
Nwuba is considered a top defender who can play center and power forward, though his offensive game is still evolving.
