Campbell projects to be more of a project player at the next level. He’ll likely be a second round pick with an opportunity to work out a role in the NBA through the G-League.

He is the third Bruin to declare for the draft, joining National Defensive Player of the Year Jaylen Clark and star forward Jaime Jacquez.
