LSU men's basketball adds dynamic transfer from in-state school

LSU men's basketball secured its third commitment of the 2025 spring transfer portal window on Wednesday. Rashad King will join head coach Matt McMahon's team from Northeastern, according to On3's Joe Tipton.

The shooting guard spent three seasons and made an impact since his arrival, starting in 11 games as a freshman and averaging 16.6 minutes per game. He rose through the ranks to a full-time starter this season.

In an All-CAA first-team year, King led the Huskies with 18.5 points per game and tallied 14 games with 20+ points as well as three double-doubles. He also recorded a team highs with 106 assists and 46 steals.

With a six-foot-six frame, the Evans, GA native brings athleticism to both ends of the court. He follows Mississippi State center Mike Nwoko and UNLV point guard Dean Thomas. The trio will aim to revitalize an LSU program that went 14-18 overall and won just three SEC games last season.
