Former Southern California basketball player Chad Baker-Mazara has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court against the university and head coach Eric Musselman. Filed on Monday, the legal action follows Baker-Mazara's abrupt dismissal from the team in March after playing 25 games, during which he led the squad in scoring.
The lawsuit centers on allegations of missed name, image, and likeness (NIL) payments owed to the player. Additionally, the complaint accuses Coach Musselman of engaging in a racially charged tirade prior to kicking Baker-Mazara off the team.
