The mass exodus at Memphis continues.

Tigers guard Markel Crawford told Jeff Goodman of ESPN that he will be transferring out of the program. Crawford's departure now makes six players that have left the program since their season ended.

Crawford averaged nearly 13 points per game last season and was the team's second leading scorer. With Dedric and K.J. Lawson also opting to transfer, that leaves head coach Tubby Smith without his top three scorers heading into 2017-18.

It was revealed Monday that the Lawson brothers will be joining Kansas.
