A star point guard's departure fuels speculation about the LSU Tigers' coaching carousel.
The busy day for LSU Tigers basketball gets even busier as star point guard Dedan Thomas Jr. plans to enter the transfer portal when it opens in early April, per Joe Tipton of On3 Sports. Thomas was a high-profile addition from the UNLV Rebels last offseason by Matt McMahon to make him the engine of the offense this year.
The plan worked great in non-conference play, but a foot injury suffered right before SEC play began derailed the year. The point guard will now end his Tigers career having played in 16 games and averaging 15. 3 points, 2.
7 rebounds and a career-high 6. 5 assists. He shot 45.
9/30. 2/83. 3 splits.
