Curtis Givens III is headed home. The LSU transfer has officially committed to the University of Memphis.

A native of Memphis, the 6-foot-3 freshman point guard averaged 4.8 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.6 assists in 18.3 minutes a game this season with the LSU Tigers.

Givens is a former four-star recruit and was the No. 61 overall recruit in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking. He was also the No. 10 ranked point guard.

“Curtis Givens is a skilled and confident lead guard,” On3’s Jamie Shaw said on his scouting report in the winter of 2023. “He has smooth three-point range that extends well beyond the arc. While he will need to continue developing his explosion, he can get to his spots, off the bounce, in the half-court, and has good floor vision. Givens is a modern type guard who can score and facilitate. He should track among the top in his class.”
