South Carolina basketball guard Zachary Davis will enter the transfer portal, he tells On3sports.

The 6-7 junior averaged 8.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game this season.

Originally committed to Frank Martin, Davis stuck around for the Lamont Paris era of Gamecock basketball. He quickly became a defensive presence and played a key role in the team’s tournament run two years ago. However, this past season, Davis struggled with turnovers and inefficiency. Despite the ups and downs, this move opens up a scholarship for Paris to use in the transfer portal while providing Davis with the opportunity to restart and pursue a bounce-back year. He will transfer with one more year of eligibility remaining, looking to find a new opportunity for his final season in college basketball.
