Magnum Rolle was granted his release from the LSU basketball team, according to a news release issued Wednesday by the Athletic Department.
Both parties made a mutual decision, according to the release.
“Despite the development of several players who have had the patience and made it to the next level in our program at his position, sometimes the parties involved do not agree on a developmental process of the player as it relates to the team,” LSU coach John Brady said. “When that happens, other options may be explored. We wish Magnum well with his future in basketball and his pursuit of his education.”
Rolle, a 6-10 junior forward, played in 29 games this past season, including nine starts. He averaged 4.0 points and 4.1 rebounds in 16.7 minutes of playing time per game.
