After two successful basketball seasons at the University of Central Arkansas, Maumelle High graduate Carl Daughtery Jr.decided it was time for a change.

Daughtery, above, entered the transfer portal as the UCA basketball program was moving on from its former coach, Anthony Boone, to John Shulman, who was most recently at Alabama-Huntsville and before that, Tennessee-Chattanooga.
Daughtery saw action in 29 games this past season with 10 starts. He would have been one of the better Bears coming back to Scottie Pippen Court as he was third on the team in scoring with nearly 10 points a game.
His best game was against Tulsa last season where he had 19 points. As a freshman, he played in 23 games and became a dependable three-point shooter.
UC Davis went 20-13 last season and lost in the Big West Conference championship game.
Daughtery was an all-state performer at Maumelle where he averaged 18 points a game. He also scored over 1,000 career points for coach Michael Shook.
Garland on the move
Colby Garland only spent one season at Maumelle, his senior year, after a stellar and state-championship winning run at Magnolia.

Garland, above, who played last season at Drake, also entered the transfer portal despite playing in the NCAA Tournament and was a member of the Missouri Valley Conference's All-Bench team.
Garland played in 31 games and averaged nearly 6 points per game. He's transferring to Longwood, a Division I school that competes in the Big South. Hoops heads may recall Longwood also played in the NCAA Tournament last season and lost in the first round to Houston. But you're forgiven if you thought Longwood was one of those D-III's scattered around the south.
Carl Daughtery Jr. and Garland were teammates at Maumelle as the latter spent a post-grad season at Link Year Prep in Branson, Missouri.

Sherwood's Corey Washington, who spent his senior season at North Little Rock, also hopped into the transfer portal after spending the last two seasons at St. Peter's, the Division I school and March Madness darling.

Washington was all-conference last season for the Peacocks after averaging nearly 16 points a game. He previously was on the conference's all-freshman team.
He's now at Wichita State where coach Paul Mills said of him, "he is a dynamic player who can defend multiple positions, rebound at a high rate and play in a manner where he is ultra aggressive in transition and in the half court."
This might explain the Wichita State gear recently spotted at the North Little Rock T.J. Maxx, but unlikely as the T.J. Maxx/Marshalls/Ross Dress for Less universe is a chaotic and random one.
Not on the move
North Little Rock's Collin Moore returns for his senior season at Grand Canyon University.

Moore, above, led Grand Canyon to a 30-5 record overall and a second round NCAA Tournament loss to Alabama.
The 6-foot-5 guard started all 35 of those games and was good for nearly 10 points a game.
