ND Okafor

In a game that was truly reflective of their year, the Bears just did not have it in them to compete with Washington State. The Bears finished the season with an all-time low 3-29 record, going 2-18 in Pac-12 play and ending the year on a 16-game losing streak.

Brokenhearted and blue since the day they’ve parted (and likely way before then, as well, considering Cal’s previous record), basketball fans should be thrilled to hear that Monday night will see the official opening of the 2022-23 season.

The new-look Bears confirmed some long-held fears, but equally revealed new reasons for hope ahead of the 2022-23 season.

Cal men’s basketball gives a glimpse into the future of the program with the additions of ND Okafor and Grant Newell to the 2022 recruiting class, two high-potential forwards who will hit the court next year.
