Lester. Gone. LOCK

Pro or another college?

Ouch. Key glue guy. Defensive look down stud. Plays well within system. Shooter. Threat.

Not to mention his authentic personality. Gotta love him!

I can understand Lester maybe testing the waters or playing overseas but going to another college doesn't make a lot of sense. He's already developed a brand at Memphis with fans buying shirts bearing his name which he will get paid for under the NIL, if I am understanding that right, and he would stand to make some bucks with NIL. With one year as a senior somewhere else would he have time to build another brand? I doubt it. "IF" he goes deep in the second round of the draft he may or may not make it and too late then for NIL money. If he hasn't entered the transfer portal he is probably not looking at another school. I hope he comes back.

I am a big Lester fan and really enjoyed watching him develop over the past couple of years. With that said, he is not close to being an NBA player. 0% chance he would be drafted.

Really solid college player that deserves a lot of minutes and plays a significant role but not an NBA caliber player.

Yep, I will really miss watching Lester play. He was a solid Tiger basketball guy. Good luck to him.

I see in this thread many saying he is gone but none provide links or sources to why they think he is gone.

the deadline to enter the transfer portal for basketball is may 1

lester, minott and williams have not entered the transfer portal

so they are either going pro or coming back to memphis

When he made his announcement that he was entering the draft, he said he wasn’t planning on coming back.

Only coaches and administrators have access to the transfer portal, right? Confused how anyone on this board knows who is and isn't in it.

He did? All I saw was that he would "weigh all his options," which to me doesn't mean much of anything.

Maybe I’m remembering someone else saying that… I thought he tweeted it, but I can’t find it.

Yep, I had it wrong. It was Minott.

Doubt there is a privacy requirement on the data.

None at all. Coaches are letting reporters have access to the portal to break scoops.

That looks pretty up to date, the question is how accurate is it timing wise and do they get names wrong? The other question is why if they have until May 1st to enter the portal do you think the choice is pro or return? It's April 18th.

Good deal. Thanks for clarifying!
