LOS ANGELES (AP) Kentucky transfer Johnny Juzang can play basketball for UCLA this winter.

The NCAA on Wednesday approved a transfer waiver of the year in residence requirement, which typically forces a transfer to sit out one season before becoming eligible. As a result, Juzang is eligible to play what will be his sophomore season in 2020-21.

"We've very excited that Johnny will be able to play for us next season," coach Mick Cronin said. "Johnny is a talented player who can definitely make an impact for us."
