Cal Basketball: Transfer Guard DeJuan Clayton Expects the Bears to Win This Season
Read entire article here: https://www.si.com/college/cal/basketball/cal-newcomer-dejuan-clayton
New Cal guard DeJuan Clayton, joining his third college team in seven seasons at the age of 25, has plans for his one and only season at Berkeley.
“I expect us to win this year,” he said, “and I expect to play a big role, a big part and be a leader of the team.”
Clayton, who spent five years at Coppin State and played two games at Hartford last season before suffering a should injury, was aware of Cal’s recent woes before signing this spring.
“I looked at their record,” he said, referring to the fact that the Bears’ 12-20 record last season was their fifth straight losing season. “Didn’t scare me, didn’t change anything. Just figured we had work to do.”
Clayton, a 6-foot-2 native of Bowie, Maryland, is among what coach Mark Fox hopes is a four-man group of newcomers bolstering the Cal roster this season. Forwards ND Okafor and Grant Newell are freshmen, and the Bears still are waiting for junior guard Devin Askew – a former four-star prospect who spent one season each at Kentucky and Texas — to receive transfer eligibility from the NCAA.
