NCAA Men's Basketball: 20% of Division I players in transfer portal – For The Win
There’s no ignoring the impact the transfer portal has had on college sports since its advent several years ago.
The impacts have been felt across all sports, but perhaps most notably in basketball. On the men’s side alone, more than 1,000 players have already entered the portal, and the number is growing by the day.
That list includes several big names like Michigan’s Hunter Dickinson, Baylor’s LJ Cryer, Creighton’s Ryan Nembhard and mid-major superstar Max Abrams from Oral Roberts.
Just to put the sheer volume of players heading elsewhere this offseason into context, more than 20% of scholarship Division I men’s college basketball players have entered the transfer portal already, per On3’s Matt Zenitz.

Compare that to football, which saw around 12% of scholarship FBS players enter the transfer portal.
Lots of offseason movement is the new normal in college sports, and considering all it takes is one big season in college basketball to make a name for yourself as an NBA prospect, we’re likely to only see these numbers continue to grow.
