Nevada’s Desmond Cambridge has entered the transfer portal as a graduate transfer, he tells On3. The 6-foot-4 shooting guard will look for a new home after spending the last two seasons with head coach Steve Alford in Reno.

Cambridge began his college career at Brown University, where he averaged 16.5 points in two years with the program before transferring to Nevada.

This past season, Cambridge was the Wolfpack’s second-leading scorer. He averaged 16.2 points a game, on 43.5% from the field and 37% from three. Cambridge also grabbed 5.1 rebounds and dished out 1.8 assists per outing.

The Nashville native has one year of eligibility remaining.

“I would like to thank the University of Nevada, the city of Reno, the coaching staff & Wolf Pack Nation. My experience in Reno has been unforgettable, and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to be apart of such a great community. The way that I have matured mentally & physically over the last several years will stick with me for the rest of my life, and I have this city to thank for that. I will never forget my time here! Thank you.

“I will be graduating from the University of Nevada, Reno in the spring & will be entering the transfer portal as a Graduate Transfer for my final year of eligibility,” Cambridge said in a statement to On3.
