Guard D.J. Smith made it a clean sweep Friday when he became the fifth member of the Robert Morris starting lineup to announce plans to enter the transfer portal, verbalcommits.com reported.

Smith joins former RMU teammates Kam Woods, Alvaro Folgueiras, Amarion Dickerson and Josh Omojafo, all of whom have decided to leave the team within a week of its loss in the NCAA Tournament.

A 6-foot junior, Smith is seeking to join his fourth team in five seasons after spending two at Little Rock and one at Bowling Green.

He played in all 35 games with 32 starts for the Colonials this season, averaging 9.1 points and 2.3 rebounds with 112 assists (second on the team).

Overall, six players have announced plans to leave the team, including reserve forward Antallah Sandlin’El.
