March Madness hero Dylan Darling transfers to Grand Canyon

•Yahoo Sports

Dylan Darling parlayed his March Madness success into a new opportunity with Grand Canyon.

It's not often that a player who averaged under seven points and three assists per game gets a lot of attention when his name comes up in the transfer portal. Unless he's Dylan Darling. While the statistics didn't jump off the page for the junior guard in his one and only season with St.

John's, Darling's heroics in a round of 32 NCAA tournament game for the Red Storm earned him a special place in history. The buzzer-beating layup against Kansas also earned him a unique nickname. Be that as it may, Darling's time in the Big Apple is over, as he's committed to transfer to Grand Canyon for his senior season.

NEWS: St. John's guard Dylan Darling has committed to Grand Canyon, per @JoeTipton . He averaged 6.

9 PPG, 2. 5 RPG and 2. 6 APG this past season for the Red Storm.
