Who are the best men’s and women’s players in the NCAA basketball transfer portal? Boardroom has you covered from Hunter Dickinson to Aneesah Morrow.
Take a gander at all the Way Too Early 2023-24 preseason men’s and women’s basketball rankings and you’ll notice something that could only be described as consistent inconsistency. Different media outlets assume different players will declare for the NBA and WNBA drafts, use their bonus COVID year of eligibility, or simply move on from college. The biggest question mark right now, however, lies in the NCAA transfer portal.
Since college basketball’s regular season ended, the portal roster has steadily grown, and now that March Madness is in the rearview mirror, too, coaches will send their recruiting efforts into overdrive — and in the NIL era, there’s really no predicting which way anyone is leaning. A transfer could have a great visit at one school, but then again, John Ruiz might swoop in with more Life Wallet money. Before you know it, Miami has another Final Four team.
As of this writing, there are a few huge names already in the portal. On the men’s side, 2021 NCAA Tournament darling and 2,500-point scorer Max Abmas from Oral Roberts leads the way along with former Michigan big Hunter Dickinson. For the women, it’s DePaul’s Aneesah Morrow, one of the best offensive players in the country this year.
Having trouble tracking who, exactly, your team should be looking at? Fear not, here is the 2023 Boardroom NCAA Basketball Transfer Portal Tracker.
