Report: Javon Small Commits to West Virginia

TRANSFER PORTAL TRACKER

Javon Small is staying in the Big 12, but he isn’t returning to Oklahoma State.

Small on Wednesday committed to West Virginia, according to multiple reports. Small played one season at OSU, where he averaged 15.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and 4.1 assists a game before entering the transfer portal.

Small led the Cowboys in scoring this past season while shooting 37% from 3-point range. He scored 20 or more points six times for OSU this past season.

This marks Small’s second transfer, as he came to Oklahoma State after two seasons at East Carolina. He is originally from South Bend, Indiana.

Small joins a West Virginia squad that is also going through a coaching transition. Interim coach Josh Eilert was not retained after the Mountaineers went 9-23 this past season. That led to WVU hiring Drake’s Darian DeVries.

With Small committing to West Virginia, all five players who entered the portal from this past season’s OSU team have announced new destinations:

Small — West Virginia
Brandon Garrison — Kentucky
Eric Dailey Jr. — UCLA
Justin McBride — Nevada
Quion Williams — Abilene Christian

New OSU coach Steve Lutz has six scholarships still to use after adding portal additions Arutro Dean (FIU), Robert Jennings II (Texas Tech) and Marchelus Avery (UCF). Those three join Bryce Thompson, Jamyron Keller, Connor Dow and incoming freshman Jeremiah Johnson on OSU’s current roster.
