Former Top-40 National Prospect Wesley Yates III Transferring To USC

New USC basketball coach Eric Musselman already had a full roster after a busy couple months of mining the transfer portal, but that didn’t stop the Trojans from adding another notable addition.

Wesley Yates III, a top-40 prospect from the 2023 recruiting class, announced Thursday he’s transferring to USC after one year at Washington.
