Cal basketball

Cal men’s basketball showcases a rough shooting day resulting in a season-low 60 points in its three-point loss to Montana State on Thursday night.

Cal starts its season 2-1 for the first time since 2020 and will continue to embark on its journey to build a winning streak against Montana State at home Thursday.

Bears’ guard Leilani McIntosh and wing McKayla Williams will likely have the responsibility of slowing down the Mustangs' leading scorers, as Cal’s tandem has been a two-way force in the young season.

Jaylon Tyson's waiver for immediate appeal was granted Thursday, meaning the two-time transfer may hit the court much sooner than expected.

Cal head coach Mark Madsen announced on Wednesday that Jeremiah Wilkinson, a 6’1” guard from Georgia, signed with Cal for the 2024-25 season.

Cal, led by Jalen Celestine and Fardaws Aimaq, kickstarted the Mark Madsen era with a last-minute thriller against St. Thomas.

After nearly eight months, Cal’s 2023-24 men’s basketball season is just a couple days away as the team sets to face St. Thomas for the first of 31 regular season games.

Two-time transfer Jaylon Tyson will miss the 2023-24 season after being denied immediate eligibility. Cal’s appeal for Tyson’s eligibility is still in progress.

Once the “Conference of Champions,” the Pac-12 has lost at least three teams to realignment, marking a major shift in the landscape of college athletics.

While the Bears have been off the court during his first few months in charge, Madsen oversaw massive squad turnover. With eight outgoing and five incoming transfers, Cal will look like a completely different team next season.
