VCU forward Marcus Santos-Silva has announced through social media on Monday that he will be transferring from VCU. His departure comes after a recent announcement that he would be entering himself as a NBA draft candidate without an agent. It now appears that he will use his extra year of NCAA eligibility elsewhere.

Santos-Silva was VCU’s leading scorer last season (18-13) where he averaged 12.8 points and 8.9 rebounds per game.
VCU announced yesterday an addition to the roster with the landing of 7’1 transfer Brendan Medley-Bacon, <a href="https://www.vcuramnation.com/2020/04/rams-land-71-transfer-big-brendan-medley-bacon/">you can read about him here</a>.
