High school and college career

After averaging 13.7 points and 8.6 boards a game for Findlay Prep in 2013-14, Victor spent his college freshman year at the University of Arizona, compiling averages of 3.1 points and 1.1 rebounds in eight contests wearing a Wildcat uniform.

He transferred to LSU in January 2015[1] and had to sit out until the end of the 2015 fall semester before making his debut for the Tigers in December 2015. Until the remainder of the 2015-16 season, he saw the court in 25 contests, averaging 11.5 points and 5.6 rebounds for LSU.

Victor missed the three opening games of the 2016-17 campaign due to suspension (violation of team rules)[2] and then averaged 10.5 points as well as 7.6 rebounds in eight games. In late December 2016, he was dismissed from the LSU squad for another violation of team rules.[3]

Professional career

In April 2017, Victor declared for the 2017 NBA draft,[4] but was not selected by any team. He then joined the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the NBA G League for the 2017-18 season.[5]
