The 1995–96 UCLA Bruins men’s basketball team represented the University of California Los Angeles in the 1995–96 NCAA Division I men’s basketball season as Defending National Champions from 1995 but bookended the season with two disappointing losses taken apart while ranked #4 in the Maui Classic by a Santa Clara team lead by then obscure guard Steve Nash. The team finished 1st in the conference.
