LOS ANGELES (AP) -UCLA has dismissed sophomore center J’mison Morgan from the men’s basketball team.
Morgan will transfer to another school, UCLA coach Ben Howland said in a brief statement Tuesday.
The 6-foot-10 center played in 40 games over the past two seasons as a reserve with the Bruins. He averaged 2.1 points and 1.1 rebounds, less than the Bruins expected when they recruited the Dallas native.
Morgan was suspended by the Bruins for one game earlier this month for missing a team meeting, and he didn’t play in UCLA’s two Pac-10 tournament games. He also missed seven games recovering from a partially torn quadriceps and struggled with conditioning throughout the season.
UCLA finished 14-18, its worst record since 2003-04.
