Marcus Lee Visits Cal, Washington

Former Kentucky forward Marcus Lee has taken visits to both Cal and Washington but has yet to decide on his future landing spot.

“Both visits were great,” Bryan Lee, the player’s brother, told SNY.tv. “No decision yet.”

The 6-foot-9 Lee will have to sit one year to play one.

He opted to withdraw from the NBA Draft and announced he would transfer from Kentucky, with head coach John Calipari saying Lee would go to a school “out west to be closer to his family.”

“Marcus Lee informed us today that he is pulling his name out of the draft but has decided he is going to transfer to a school out west to be closer to his family,” head coach John Calipari said. “We talked it through together and discussed the team next season, which he said had no bearing on his decision. I also told him he was a semester away from graduating. With that said, he was still adamant that, after the combine experience, a year off and regrouping would be the best thing. As always I support my players and their decisions.”

Lee averaged career highs in points per game (6.4), rebounds per game (6.0), total blocks (59) and total assists (11).
