Nojel Eastern Enters Transfer Portal

Matt Painter wants to get old and stay old, but that will not be the case in 2020-21. Nojel Eastern has decided to enter the transfer portal per Gold and Black Illustrated:

Eastern had already decided to test the draft waters and enter the NBA Evaluation process, but it was strongly suspected that he was going to return to Purdue. Now, it appears he is gone. He is free to return to Purdue once in the portal, but it seems unlikely. With one year of eligibility remaining he would have to graduate in order to play immediately elsewhere, otherwise he would be forced to sit out a season (he has a redshirt year available) in order to play.
