Penn State guard Rasir Bolton has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, according to 247Sports sources. Bolton, who will be a sophomore next season, was the Nittany Lions’ second-leading scorer as a true freshman last winter.

Bolton was a solid sixth man for Pat Chambers' squad in 2018-19, averaging 11.6 points per game. He made 52 3-pointers on 144 tries (36.1 percent) and led the team by shooting 87.6 percent from the free throw line.

He scored a career-high 27 points in a win over Colgate.

The 6-foot-2, 180-pounder hails from Petersburg, Va. He attended Massanutten Military Academy.

Bolton was a three-star prospect according to the 247Sports Composite. He was the nation’s 34th-best point guard and the seventh-best prospect in Virginia.

While in high school, he also held offers from Clemson and East Carolina, to name a few.

If Bolton leaves, Chambers could be faced with the prospect of replacing his three leading scorers. Top point producer Lamar Stevens is set to be a senior next season, but he declared for the 2019 NBA Draft. However, is holding open the option of returning to PSU. Third-leading scorer Josh Reaves was a senior last season and has exhausted his eligibility.

Friday marks the last day of classes for Penn State's spring semester. Final exams are slated for next Monday through Friday.

Penn State, which won the NIT title in 2017-18, is coming off a disappointing 2018-19 campaign. The Nittany Lions went 14-18 overall and 7-13 in the Big Ten. That featured a 10-game losing streak to begin conference play. Nevertheless, after the season athletic director Sandy Barbour gave Chambers a vote of confidence.

Next season will be Chambers' ninth at the helm of the program. Penn State has yet to advance to the NCAA Tournament during his tenure.
