Cruz joined the Wildcats just before Arizona's first game of the 2015-16 season, and has played in 14 games in two years at UA. Last year, Cruz played a total of 21 minutes, nine of them coming in a win against Sacred Heart when he grabbed two rebounds.
Cruz will have two years of eligibility at Cal Poly.
Head coach Joe Callero said in a press release: "Paulo has great range on his jumper and we like his size and strength for a wing," Callero said. "He could compete for playing time at the two or three spot his first year with us. We love the depth and experience he'll bring to our team."
