Murphy, who transferred from New Mexico Junior College last year after spending the previous season at Charlotte, entered the NCAA transfer portal.

Murphy started the season as Pitt’s best outside shooting threat, totaling 13 points in the opening victory against Florida State and a season-high 28 against Nicholls State. He recorded double-digit scoring in 11 of the first 19 games.

Murphy missed three games in January due to a concussion suffered in practice.

He led Pitt with 42 made 3-pointers. His 33.1 shooting percentage from beyond the arc and 83.3% free-throw rate (25 of 30) led all regulars. Overall, he shot 36.1% from the floor (81 of 224), eighth on the team.
