23. Darrion Williams – Nevada to Texas Tech
2022-23 season stats: 7.6 ppg, 7.3 rpg, and 2.7 apg
The 6’6 forward was the Mountain West Rookie of the Year last season, starting 30 games as a freshman at Nevada. Williams shot 41% from the field and 36% from three-point range, while also being an impact defender. He had one double-double, going for 13 points and 13 rebounds against New Mexico. Williams is the ideal athlete that Texas Tech likes and will be a nice fit with new head coach, Grant McCasland.
22. Jayden Nunn – VCU to Baylor
2022-23 season stats: 9.3 ppg and 2.5 rpg
The 6’4 guard started all 66 games in his two-year career at VCU as a quality defender and capable scorer. Nunn shot 40% from three-point range and had a couple of big outings, including 24 points on 7/11 shooting against Kennesaw State, as well as a career-high 31 points on 7/7 shooting from three-point range against St. Joseph’s. He joins a Baylor program with a great history at guard and there’s playing time available since all three starters from this past season are gone.
21. Jalen Deloach – VCU to Georgia
2022-23 season stats: 9.7 ppg and 6.9 rpg
The 6’9 forward is another former VCU player heading to the power conference level. Deloach was a great defender at the A-10 and was a double-digit scorer in most games, with one being a 19-point and 12-rebound performance versus UMass. Georgia had little frontcourt production last season and needed a replacement for Braelen Bridges inside.
