After committing to USC on October 2, 2012, Thornwell was second on the USC basketball team in scoring with 13.4 ppg and 4.0 rebounds per game. He also averaged 3.0 assists per game. During conference play, he was averaging 15.0 ppg as well. On January 22, 2014, Thornwell had a career high 26 points against the University of Georgia. His sophomore year in the 2014-2015 season was not as productive as his freshman season, partly because he did not have a very good supporting cast of players, as well as injuries and a dip in his shooting percentages.
