Daimion Collins has found a new home in the SEC. The former Kentucky forward has selected LSU as his transfer destination.
Collins shared the news Thursday on his Instagram account.
A former 5-star recruit and McDonald’s All-American from Texas, Collins announced in April that he would be entering the NCAA transfer portal:
“I want to take a moment to thank Coach Cal and staff, for giving me the opportunity to represent BBN and continue my growth as a young man,” Collins wrote in a note posted to his social media pages.
“While this has been a difficult decision, it’s the best decision for my future. With that being said I will be entering the transfer portal.”
Collins played in 52 games, starting 2, for UK over 2 seasons. He averaged 2.4 points and 2 rebounds over 7.6 minutes per game. As a recruit, Collins had scholarship offers from 15 schools, including Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia and Texas A&M.
