USC basketball finished out 2018 with good news and bad news. The good? A win over UC Davis on Sunday night. The bad? The transfer of sophomore guard Jordan Usher.
Usher has been suspended indefinitely for “unspecified conduct issues,” per Joey Kaufman of the OC Register, ahead of the Trojans final non-conference game against UC Davis, which USC won 73-55 with a second-half surge.
While little information was available as to the nature of Usher’s suspension, he took to Twitter around midday on Monday with a statement announcing his transfer.
“With the help of my family, mentors and the USC basketball program, an athletic transfer has been requested and granted,” Usher wrote.
