After going undrafted in the 2019 NBA draft, Taylor played for the Philadelphia 76ers during the NBA Summer League. He went on to spend preseason in Australia with the Adelaide 36ers of the National Basketball League (NBL) but was released before the start of the regular season as the team decided to resign Jerome Randle. Taylor then had a probationary period with Latvian team VEF Rīga where he did not appear in a game but participated in team practices. On October 31, 2019, he was released by VEF Rīga in order to return to Australia, signing with the Sydney Kings as an injury replacement for Kevin Lisch. Upon Lisch's return, Taylor's stint with the Kings was extended when he was nominated to serve as an injury replacement for Craig Moller. He was removed from the playing roster prior to the start of the playoffs due to the team's return to health but stayed with the Kings while they appeared in the 2020 NBL Finals, where they lost in a shortened finals series to the Perth Wildcats.

During his junior season, Taylor was elevated to a permanent starting position. He scored a career-high 32 points against Nevada on January 31, 2018. He averaged team-highs in points (17.8) and assists (2.6), as well as 3.2 rebounds a game. His 200 made free throws were a single season program record. Taylor was named to the All-Mountain West First Team and All-Defense Team. He initially declared for the 2018 NBA draft, but elected to return to Fresno State for his senior season.

Taylor chose to transfer to Fresno State as a walk-on due to it being close to home and wanting to reunite with old teammates on the roster. Per NCAA regulations, Taylor redshirted during the Bulldogs' 2015–16 season.
