Former Shocker guard Jamarius Burton commits to Texas Tech

Former Wichita State point guard Jamarius Burton has found a new home. On Monday, Burton announced his commitment to Texas Tech after narrowing his list down to four schools earlier last week.

Ever since Burton entered his name into the transfer portal one day after the conclusion of the season, he has become a prized commodity as one of the top transfer guards. Prior to choosing Texas Tech, Burton had Marquette, Xavier and Seton Hall in his final four while also being ranked as the 10th best sit-out transfer by ESPN.

Despite dealing with injuries at the start of his sophomore campaign, Burton excelled at the point guard position during the 2019-20 season as he went on to average 10.
