: RUMOR: Duke’s Lance Thomas to Transfer
VUhoops.com hasn’t been above posting rumors before and figuring it’s going to be a slow week we thought we’d throw a small rumor out there…
Duke sophmore Lance Thomas is reportedly upset in Durham and possibly considering a transfer; Villanova would be a likely landing spot. The 6′8″ 220 pounder went to St. Benedict’s Prep in Newark with Corey Stokes.
Thomas played 18.5 minutes a game for Duke this year getting 4.3points and 4 rebounds.
We don’t know how strong the legs are on this rumo, but we do know that Lance’s experience, hussle, and size would be a welcome addition to this team after Dante Cunningham graduates.
