Five members of this past year’s team, the first under new head coach Scott Cross, have entered the NCAA transfer portal, including the Trojans’ top two scorers from the season. Four of the five players are guards.
The five are redshirt freshman shooting guard Darian Adams, junior point guard Jitaurious (Ty) Gordon, sophomore point guard Kevin “KJ” Simon, sophomore shooting guard Tahj Small and redshirt junior power forward Davion Thomas.
The five were among more than 600 college basketball players as of Wednesday afternoon listed in the NCAA transfer portal, according to verbalcommits.com/transfers2020.
Simon announced in a tweet Wednesday that he plans to attend Bethune-Cookman University in Daytona Beach, Fla.
