LSU men’s basketball forward Garrett Green will transfer from LSU to pursue a graduate degree, head coach Trent Johnson announced Monday.
Green, who plans to graduate from the University in August, will use his one-time NCAA transfer exception to complete his eligibility, since he was redshirted for the 2008 season.  
Green averaged 6.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and shot 44.8 percent from the field last season.
“Coach Johnson has given me every opportunity to be successful here at LSU, Green said in an Athletic Department news release. “I’m getting my bachelor’s degree, had a chance to play in the SEC and be a part of a great basketball program. I really appreciate everything Coach Johnson and LSU have done for me, but I look forward to my next opportunity.”
