After years of being a role player for the Bruins , Roll became a leader of the team as a fifth-year senior in 2009 – 10 . He was pushed into his new role after the departure of seniors Shipp , Darren Collison , and Alfred Aboya from the prior season . Moreover , he would have been only the fourth option on the team behind Kevin Love , Westbrook , and Holiday , had they not declared early for the National Basketball Association . Roll prepared for the increased workload during the offseason with a workout regimen that included basketball workouts twice a day , ball-handling drills , shooting 500 times daily , and a weight-training program to strengthen his legs and back . UCLA 's roster that season included six freshmen and six sophomores . Roll , Nikola Dragović , and James Keefe were the only seniors on the team , and Keefe 's season ended prematurely after season-ending shoulder surgery . UCLA 's season ended in the semifinals of the 2010 Pacific-10 Conference Tournament with an 85 – 72 loss to California , despite a career-high 27 points from Roll . He averaged 22.5 points in the two tournament games , and was named to the All-Tournament team . The Bruins finished the season 14-18 and did not qualify for the NCAA tournament for the first time in six seasons . Roll earned first team All-Pac-10 honors , and was named the Bruins ' most valuable player after leading the team in scoring with 14.1 points per game . He also led UCLA with 3.6 assists per game , and set the school record for most career games played ( 147 ) , surpassing Collison and Aboya 's previous mark ( 142 ) . Roll was selected to play in the Reese 's College All-Star Game during the Final Four
