UCLA may have lost its floor general and its best young phenom to the NBA, but its leading scorer will remain in Westwood for at least one more year, the Register has confirmed.

UCLA will have some tough shoes to fill after Kyle Anderson and Zach LaVine officially declared for the 2014 NBA draft.

UCLA underclassmen Kyle Anderson and Zach LaVine have declared for the NBA draft , while Bruins sophomore guard Jordan Adams and junior guard Normal Powell are considering turning pro .

UCLA's basketball season only just recently came to an end with a loss to Florida in the Sweet 16, but the Bruins have plenty to look forward to in the upcoming 2014-15 season.

The UCLA basketball team was defeated in the round of 16 by Florida University. As with all seasons, the next one is met with key arrivals as well as departures.

Michael Frazier II made five 3-pointers and scored a team-high 19 points and top-seeded Florida ousted the Bruins for the fourth time in the past eight years with a tense 79-68 victory in a familiar Sweet 16 showdown.

The Mighty UCLA basketball program, winners of 11 National Championships, the untouchable men's college basketball record 81-game winning streak, and house that the Legendary Wizard of Westwood, John Wooden, built.

With their most recent win over the Boston Celtics , the Toronto Raptors clinched a playoff berth for the first time since 2008.

With a record of 40 wins and 31 losses, the Chicago Bulls have turned around what looked to a bleak season after losing Derrick Rose and trading Luol Deng into a season of inspiration and hope.

After falling to No. 1 seed Florida in the Sweet 16 on Thursday, UCLA was dealt another blow when news broke early Friday morning that Kyle Anderson will declare for the NBA draft.

Florida seniors Scottie Wilbekin -- the SEC Player of the Year -- and Patric Young will have their hands full against a talented UCLA squad Thursday night.

Just 16 teams remain with hopes of claiming the ultimate prize of a national championship, so the tension is ratcheted up for every program still standing.

It's on to the Sweet 16 for two Pac-12 teams that seemed destined all along to make it , and one that nobody gave any shot .

To them, it was and is not merely a defensive stratagem. It is a repudiation of basketball's most primal principle: You against me, one-on-one on the blacktop, times five.

It was seven long years ago, but I'm sure UCLA fans still very much feel the sting of getting bounced out of the Final Four two-straight years by Florida in 2006 and 2007.

As expected, the first three rounds of the 2014 NCAA tournament were highlighted by numerous close games and plenty of upsets.
