UCLA guard Collison to return next year

Point guard Darren Collison and forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute will not enter the NBA Draft and instead will return for their junior seasons at UCLA. After losing only leading scorer and defensive leader Aaron Afflalo, the Bruins are expected to contend for the Final Four and National Title again next year, especially with center Kevin Love coming aboard. The Bruins will likely look to forward Josh Shipp to shoulder the scoring load, but he is out all summer after getting a second surgery on his troublesome left hip. He is expected to be back to 100% health in September.
