Villanova's Jahvon Quinerly transferring

Jahvon Quinerly has elected to transfer from Villanova, the school announced Wednesday.

"We had a very candid meeting and Jahvon has decided to transfer to another program," coach Jay Wright said in a team statement. "We'll miss Jahvon. He's been an outstanding teammate and was an integral part of our success last season. We wish him the best as he approaches the next step in his basketball career."

Quinerly joined Villanova ranked No. 26 overall on the ESPN 100 in 2018. However, the former McDonald's All-American wasn't able to find much playing time in his first collegiate season. The 6-foot-1 guard appeared in 25 games for the Wildcats, averaging 3.2 points in just over nine minutes per game.
