After a season of improvement at Georgia Tech, guard Naithan George is headed elsewhere.
George is leaving the Yellow Jackets for Syracuse via the transfer portal, he told ESPN's Jonathan Givony Friday afternoon. The rising junior averaged 12.3 points per game in his sophomore season; his 6.5 assists per game led the ACC. He was the first Georgia Tech men's player to lead the conference in that category since guard Drew Barry in 1996.
