LSU guard Cam Hayes entered the NCAA Transfer Portal on Friday, sources told On3. Hayes spent just one season with the Tigers, transferring in to play for Matt McMahon last year.

Hayes was a four-star recruit in the Class of 2020 and originally enrolled at North Carolina State.

Hayes spent his first two seasons in college at NC State, playing 55 total games. He averaged 7.3 points per game and made 27 starts for the Wolfpack. He transferred to LSU for the 2022-23 season and didn’t improve his numbers much. Hayes played in 33 games for LSU, starting 18 and averaged 8.1 points per game.

He’s shown the ability to be a go-to scorer, with a pair of 25-point outings last season while playing for the Tigers. In the right situation, Hayes has the ability to be a consistent bucket-getter.

A highly-coveted recruit, Hayes earned his aforementioned four stars playing high school hoops at Greensboro (NC) Day School. He was the No. 64 player in the Class of 2020 and No. 15 point guard, according to the On3 Industry Ranking.

Nevada center Will Baker, Vanderbilt wing Jordan Wright and Tulane guard Jalen Cook are the trio of players committed to LSU from the transfer portal this offseason. 

Forward Corneilous Williams (West Carolina), guard Justice Hill (Loyola Marymount), guard Justice Williams, center Shawn Phillips, center Kendal Coleman (Cal Baptist) and guard Adam Miller are the other departures for LSU this offseason.
