Three UNLV players have transferred from the university as of Wednesday afternoon, per release.
Tony Baxter, Zion Morgan and Jalen Poyser will all be leaving the school, after requesting releases earlier this week. The trio combined for 17.6 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game this past season for a UNLV team that lost a program-record 21 games.
Wednesday’s departures are worrisome for the UNLV community, as the Rebs have suffered hits to the roster over the past two seasons. Last year, UNLV’s entire recruiting class left, while four other players transferred out of the program and Stephen Zimmerman and Patrick McCaw both declared for the NBA Draft and were selected in the second round.
