BREAKING NEWS: Tyler Lamb officially signs with UCLA

Just got text confirmation from Mater Dei's 6-foot-4, 190-pound shooting guard Tyler Lamb that he signed a letter of intent with UCLA this morning.

Lamb - see here: LAMB - is a lithe, fluid scorer, considered by some as the top perimeter player in the west.

Scout.com's Greg Hicks had this to say, when asked: "Game on the line, you need a bucket. Which senior are you drawing the play up for?"

Hicks: "Since I only cover the West Coast, I will limit myself to players in the west. I'll go with Tyler Lamb. He can shoot the three, put the ball on the floor to create his own shot and he has the size and strength to finish inside against contact."

With senior Michael Roll graduating and Malcolm Lee becoming a workhorse for UCLA, I'd expect Lamb to challenge for a few minutes here and there next year, until he gets a bit stronger and learns Ben Howland's defense.
