Springfield's top basketball prospect is transferring out of the state and won't play for Kickapoo his senior year.
Zaide Lowery, a 6-foot-4 guard committed to Marquette, announced on Twitter that he is transferring to La Lumiere in LaPorte, Indiana.
Lowery is a four-star Class of 2022 prospect and has been regarded as a Top 100 prospect in the upcoming senior class.
Lowery leaves a Kickapoo team that is expected to contend for a state title this upcoming season. The Springfield Public Schools program fell in the district championship this past season to eventual state runner-up Nixa.
