Rumored schools for top players remaining


The men’s college basketball transfer portal window has officially closed and while some big names are on the move, several notable players are still available.

Note that commitments are constantly evolving and there is nothing static about the portal. But based on our intel and industry-wide reporting, we wanted to provide the latest updates on where each of the most fascinating players yet to make a commitment may be looking to play next season.

This list pulls from projected impact metrics for the 2024-25 season, calculated by EvanMiya.com. BPR values are interpreted as expected points per 100 possessions better than a D1 average player while on the floor.

Other metrics weighted in our rankings include NBA probability (via Nick Kalinowski), various other impact metrics including Box Plus-Minus (via Bart Torvik), and strength of schedule on their previous roster (via KenPom).
