New Mexico standout Donovan Dent transferring to UCLA

Donovan Dent, who won the Mountain West Player of the Year award with New Mexico this season, is transferring to UCLA.
The 247Sports transfer portal listing confirmed the move on Saturday. He was ranked as the No. 2 player in the portal.
Dent led the Mountain West with an average of 20.4 points and added 6.4 assists. He shot 49 percent from the field and 40.9 percent from 3-point range.
He announced he was entering the transfer portal after New Mexico's 71-63 second-round loss in the South Region of the NCAA Tournament to No. 2 seed Michigan State.
It's a homecoming for Dent, who played in high school at Centennial in Corona, about 65 miles from the UCLA campus. Coming out of high school, 247Sports ranked him as the No. 20 point guard in the nation in the 2022 class.
Dent appeared in 104 games (72 starts) over three seasons with New Mexico, scoring 1,400 total points for an average of 13.5 points per game.
