Former Cal basketball star headed to Kansas

There is a chance Moore could be granted a waiver - due to his family reason for a transfer - which would allow him to play immediately next season, but that doesn't seem likely considering he will still be close to eight hours away from Chicago. His 9.9 rebounds averaged led the American Athletic Conference, and his 19.2 points averaged was good for second in the league. He averaged 19.2 points (2nd in the AAC) and 9.9 rebounds (1st in the AAC) per game.

The three players won't be eligible to play until the 2018-19 season, as determined by the NCAA rules of eligibility for transfer students.

The 5-foot-11 guard was a highly touted ESPN 100 prospect before committing to play for Cal last season.

K.J. Lawson, a redshirt-freshman forward, averaged 12.3 points and 8.1 rebounds this season. Dedric scored a career-high 35 points against Iowa on November 26, 2016.

"Averaging nearly 20 points and 10 rebounds past year, Dedric is one of the best big-man prospects in the country", Self said. Following his freshman campaign, Dedric entered the NBA Draft without an agent and returned to Memphis for his sophomore year.
