The Pac-12 basketball landscape shifted drastically Wednesday when Reid Travis announced that he’s transferring from Stanford for his fifth year.
The forward was the third-best player in the conference last season, per KenPom, and would have been the frontrunner to be Pac-12 Player of the Year if he stayed in Palo Alto.
But the 20-and-10 player will save his best for last elsewhere (likely Kentucky?), and it’s a late subtraction that decimates a Cardinal roster that already lost two starters — Dorian Pickens and Michael Humphrey — to graduation.
