Illinois sophomore Dra Gibbs-Lawhorn has entered the NCAA men’s basketball transfer portal.

The 6-foot-1 guard appeared in all 35 games, averaging 5.9 points and 1.6 rebounds in just under 15 minutes a game. He becomes the fourth Illini player to enter the portal in the last week. This news was first reported by 247sports.com.

Gibbs-Lawthorn thanked “Illini Nation” in a social media post, saying Illinois “feels like family, and it always will be to me!” He expressed gratification about his experiences in Champaign and said his love of the community will always remain.

“As for my guys, good luck, and I’m looking forward to the future success of this program,” he wrote. “It’s all love.”

Gibbs-Lawhorn made two starts for Illinois, which made a run to the Round of 32 in this year’s NCAA Tournament. He’s in the transfer portal with teammates Tre White, Carey Booth and Morez Johnson Jr., who announced Tuesday he’s going to Michigan.
