UCLA's Skyy Clark Works Out for Western Conference Squad

A familiar Los Angeles face recently worked out for the Los Angeles Lakers earlier this week ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft.

UCLA guard Skyy Clark was among several draft hopefuls to work out for the Lakers last week, joining Purdue's Trey Kaufman-Renn, Iowa State's Tamin Lipsey, and Miami (OH)'s Peter Suder. Clark suited up for UCLA for the last two seasons from 2024-2026.

UCLA's Roster Overlooked

Much of UCLA's roster from last season has not received much draft love from analysts and scouts. Aside from Clark, only Tyler Bilodeau - who was the Bruins' leading scorer last season at 17.6 points per game - has appeared on any mock draft boards, mostly as a late-second round pick.

Donovan Dent was another player with an outside chance of being drafted in the second round, but he ultimately opted to retire from the game of basketball following a difficult senior season with the Bruins in 2025-26.

Clark will look to boost his professional stock ahead of this summer's draft. While currently a long shot to get drafted, Clark will still have many opportunities to make an impact at the next level, given his growth throughout his college career.
