MILWAUKEE -- Former UTEP guard Jordan Lathon is transferring to Milwaukee. Milwaukee announced the addition of the 6-foot-4 Lathon on Friday. He is expected to sit out the 2020-21 season due to NCAA transfer regulations before playing for his new team. Lathon has two seasons of eligibility remaining. Milwaukee coach Pat Baldwin said in a statement that Lathon "brings a high level of physicality, competitiveness and athleticism to the guard position." Lathon made 22 starts last season and averaged 5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists. He ranked 11th in Conference USA in assists and second in assist-turnover ratio (1.8). He averaged 10.9 points and 5 rebounds as a freshman in 2018-19.
