UCLA lands Louisville transfer Skyy Clark

By ADAM ZAGORIA

Louisville transfer point guard Skyy Clark is headed to UCLA.

“It’s home,” Clark told On3.com. “I was raised in LA. I was recruited by [Mick] Cronin and the coaching staff in the past and I trust in their vision for the team and for me.”

The 6-foot-3 Los Angeles native averaged 13.3 points, 3.1 rebounds and 3.0 assists as a sophomore at Louisville under former coach Kenny Payne.

Payne was fired last month following a dismal 12-52 record in two seasons and replaced by former Charleston coach Pat Kelsey.

Clark began his career at Illinois before taking a leave in January 2023.
