Men's Basketball: Bears Add Guard Gabriel Sularski to Incoming Class
Coach Madsen's roster rounds into shape for upcoming season
Layton Christian Academy guard Gabriel Sularski has committed to Cal for the upcoming season.
The 6’ 6” 3-star recruit (ESPN ranked 4-star) played through his junior year in Illinois before transferring to Layton(UT) Christian Academy for his senior year. He had offers from multiple Big10 and SEC schools before choosing Cal.
As a senior with Layton Academy, Sularski averaged 12.7 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game playing against select programs from around the nation. Sularski hold dual citizenship with the USA and Poland, and played on Poland’s FIBA U16 team. He averaged 16 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game over seven games in the 2024 EuroBasket Tournament.
His U16 scouting tape show a fearless point guard who is able to get to his spot and rise for a good shot. He also executes the pick-and-roll efficiently and shows a willingness to kick out to open shooters.
In the offseason, Sularski added muscle to his frame to get ready for the increased physicality at the college level.
The Bears now have thirteen players on next year’s roster, with space to add two more.
PG - Michael Cooper, Jordan Ross
G/F - Amier Ali, Nojus Indrusaitis, Jovani Ruff, Dionycius Bakare, Gabriel Sularksi
F - Jake Wilkins, Sammie Yeanay
F/C - Nicolas Mitrovic, DK Dhut, Montas Kocanas, Lee Dort
Look for the Bears to add two walk-ons, while waiting to see if a frontcourt scholarship-level player becomes available.
Looks like a legit P4 player! Feels like Madsen is starting to build deeper rosters, a good sign of adapting to the current recruiting environment. I want an environment where guys can compete!
Nice addition.
The overall depth has seen a talent level bump. Intrigued to see how they play this year.
