Having already landed two transfers this offseason in the form of point guard Pookie Powell and small forward B.J. Johnson, La Salle picked up a commitment from a third player who began his career at another Division I institution Saturday morning.
Demetrius Henry, a 6-foot-9 power forward who played two seasons at South Carolina before deciding to transfer in search of more playing time, announced on Twitter that he’s headed to La Salle. Like the other two transfers added by head coach Dr. John Giannini, Henry will have to sit out the 2015-16 season. From there he’ll have two seasons to play for the Atlantic 10 program, which was in need of addition interior options.
