Baker-Mazara Sues USC Over NIL and Racial Allegations | USC Trojans Basketball News

Former USC basketball star Chad Baker-Mazara is suing the university and head coach Eric Musselman, alleging he was unfairly cut from the team to avoid paying him the remainder of his NIL contract — a move he says came right after the Trojans were eliminated from NCAA contention. The lawsuit also accuses Musselman of making racially charged remarks following a crushing loss to Nebraska, with Baker-Mazara claiming the coach told him to “go back to your home country” in a locker room tirade. A standout scorer and Maui Invitational MVP, Baker-Mazara argues he gave everything for USC and now seeks justice for breach of contract, conversion, and economic harm. USC denies any racial motive, calling the dismissal based on performance and team needs — and says it’s confident in winning the case.
