Guard Casmir “Cash” Chavis was released from his national letter of intent on Wednesday. The four-star point guard from Park Center High School in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota had committed to coach Mike Hopkins and Washington in November choosing the Huskies over Georgia, Arizona State, and West Virginia.
The 6-foot-2, 180-pound guard averaged 23.6 points per game last season and is ranked as the No. 20 combo guard and No. 158 overall player in the nation by 247 Sports. He announced his decision on Wednesday on his social media.

Under Hopkins, the Huskies were only slated to bring in two recruits in the 2024 class, Chavis and highly-rated four-star point guard Zoom Diallo. Now, Diallo is the only remaining member of the class.
The Huskies still appear to be building a strong backcourt for the 2024 season after earning a commitment earlier on Wednesday from Rice transfer Mekhi Mason, and are also returning Nate Calmese and Wesley Yates III. If Sprinkle can retain the services of Diallo and Koren Johnson, he could have one of the better backcourts in the Big Ten in his first year at the helm
