Pinson to transfer from Mizzou basketball

Xavier Pinson is probably leaving Mizzou basketball.

The junior point guard has entered the transfer portal, a team source confirmed on Tuesday. Pinson also said he was leaving the team on social media.

Pinson was second on the team in scoring, assists, and steals in 2020-21. Mizzou also had five seniors on the team that lost in the first round of the NCAA Tournament last weekend. They could return, since the NCAA granted players an extra year of eligibility because of the pandemic. None have indicated yet that they will.
