Dan Barto, Gavrilovic’s coach at IMG Academy, confirmed the news of Gavrilovic’s departure earlier on Friday.
“Alex has received his release and will look to transfer upon graduation or potentially turn pro back in France.,” Barto wrote in an email. “He will be looking for a situation with 25 plus minutes per game for his final year of eligibility most likely in a smaller conference. He was their first recruit and loves his Dayton family. They had a great run and developed tremendously. He leaves on great terms but he wanted to make sure the staff had notice to use the scholarship this spring to continue to move the team in the very positive direction they are going.”
Gavrilovic’s decision opens a third scholarship for UD going into the 2014-15 season.
