A 4th member of the South Carolina basketball team has entered the transfer portal.

Rising senior forward Justin Minaya has announced his intentions to leave the South Carolina basketball program, making him the sixth player from last year’s squad to either enter the transfer portal or NBA draft process. In fact, Minaya plans to do both.

In a post on Instagram earlier today, the New Jersey native thanked the university for his time spent in Columbia while also looking forward to his future at a new stop, whether that be as a graduate transfer or a professional player.
