All-WCC Guard Lamar Washington Announces Transfer Portal Decision
Damon Stoudamire and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets landed a commitment from Pacific guard Lamar Washington out of the transfer portal on Saturday, according to Tobias Bass of The Athletic. The 6'4 point guard was the No. 21 ranked transfer in the country according to Advertisement Washington will help fill the shoes of Nait George, an All-ACC point guard who Gonzaga pursued in the transfer portal in April before he committed to Syracuse. The rising senior was named to the All-WCC Second Team last year after averaging 13.5 points, 5.8 assists, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.7 steals per game for the Pacific Tigers. He was second in the conference in steals and fourth in assists behind Ryan Nembhard, Moe Odum, and WCC Player of the Year Augustus Marciulionis. Prior to Pacific, Washington spent two years at Texas Tech where he averaged 2.8 points and 1.3 assists in 12.2 minutes before following coach Dave Smart, who was an assistant in Lubbock before taking the head coaching job at Pacific. Advertisement Originally from Portland and starring at Jefferson High School, Washington also played at Compass Prep in Arizona, the same high school as current Zag freshman Davis Fogle. Now Washington becomes one of four high profile WCC stars to transfer to the ACC, joining Oregon State guards Nate Kingz (Syracuse) and Damarco Minor (Pitt), as well as Washington State guard Nate Calmese, who is replacing Hunter Sallis at Wake Forest. Gonzaga's sleepy offseason was awakened on Friday with the team landing commitments from Arizona State guard Adam Miller and 2025 center Parker Jefferson, filling a major hole at shooting guard and adding key depth and a developmental piece to the frontcourt.
