Former Oklahoma State guard Javon Small committed to West Virginia for the 2024-25 campaign, On3’s Joe Tipton has confirmed. He entered the transfer portal after spending one season with the Cowboys.
In 31 games last season, Small finished with 15.1 points per game, 4.7 rebounds per game, 4.1 assists per game, shot 44.1% from the floor and 37.4% from three-point range.
In 2022-23 with East Carolina, the South Bend, Indiana native averaged 15.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game.
As a member of the Class of 2021, Small was not ranked, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He started his college career at East Carolina and played his HS basketball out of Chandler (Ari.) Compass Prep.
To keep up with the latest players on the move, check out On3’s Transfer Portal wire.
The NCAA Transfer Portal, which covers every NCAA sport at the Division I, II and III levels, is a private database with names of student-athletes who wish to transfer. It is not accessible to the public.
The process of entering the portal is done through a school’s compliance office. Once a player provides written notification of an intent to transfer, the office enters the player’s name in the database and everything is off and running. The compliance office has 48 hours to comply with the player’s request and that request cannot be refused.
Once a player’s name shows up in the portal, other schools can contact the player. Players can change their minds at any point and withdraw from the portal. However, once a player enters the portal, the current scholarship no longer has to be honored. In other words, if a player enters the portal but decides to stay, the school is not obligated to provide a scholarship anymore.
