Well the rumors that started a few weeks ago about Jamal Boykin possibly transferring are true.  Boykin who hasn’t played much this year due to mono has decided to transfer back to a school in California reports are saying.

Boykin was considered a reach for the Blue Devils when he was coming out of Fairfax High (Calif.), but Duke was in need of a body up front and also needed four-year players to complement a class with Josh McRoberts.

Boykin played in 26 games his freshman campaign and logged a total of 70 minutes.

The departure may actually help the Blue Devils, who now have an extra scholarship if they want to sign another player in the spring. The only player that the Blue Devils are focusing on is Huntington High (West Va.) power forward Patrick Patterson.
