Report: Georgia Tech Forward Jalon Moore Enters The Transfer Portal

Moore is the latest player from last year's team to enter the portal

Georgia Tech Basketball is losing another player from last year's team to the transfer portal. 

According to a report from Kelly Quinlan of JacketsOnline, Georgia Tech forward Jalon Moore is going to be entering the transfer portal. 

This is a loss for Georgia Tech. Moore has talent and figured to play a significant role in Damon Stoudamire's first team. 

Last season, Moore averaged 7.6 PPG and 4.7 RPG on 43% shooting from the floor. He played in 32 games and averaged 20.5 minutes per game.

Guard Deivon Smith, guard Tristan Maxwell, center Cyril Martynov, forward Freds Pauls Bagatskis, forward Jordan Meka, and center Rodney Howard have all entered the transfer portal as well. Howard and Smith have been contributors over the past couple of seasons, but the others had small roles.

Guard Miles Kelly, the Yellow Jackets leading scorer last season, declared for the NBA Draft, but is maintaining his collegiate eligibility and could return.

On the flip side, Georgia Tech has the 14th-rated transfer portal class according to 247Sports. 

Kowacie Reeves (Florida), Ebenezer Dowuona (NC State), Tyzhaun Claude (Western Carolina), Tafara Gapare (UMass), Amaree Abram (Ole Miss), and Jalen Forrest (Presbyterian) are the transfers joining the program this offseason. 

I think this is a talented transfer class, but I was counting on Moore being a part of this team as well. I am interested to see if Stoudamire decides to bring in another player to help replace Moore.
