Dedan Thomas Jr., a guard who played for the LSU Tigers, has officially committed to the Houston Cougars basketball team. During his time at LSU, Thomas averaged 15.3 points, 6.5 assists, and 2.7 rebounds over 16 games, showcasing his talent despite a left foot injury that cut his season short. This injury required surgery and is expected to sideline him until the summer. Thomas had been a target for the Kentucky Wildcats, who had previously recruited him when he transferred from UNLV, but ultimately, he decided to join Houston. With Thomas off the board, Kentucky is now looking at other options, including Washington point guard Zoom Diallo and BYU transfer Rob Wright, as they face a tight timeline to secure a new point guard.
