College Basketball Transfer Portal: (4/3/20)

The transfer portal in college basketball has slowed down some, but there are now 632 transfers as of 3:30pmET on Friday, April 3. There will be news for the next few weeks about players leaving and those who are selecting programs. We do know that grad transfer will be eligible right away, but we don't know if some players who have not graduated, can either get a waiver to play right away or if the NCAA will just all transfers to play right away. Next week, we'll have a complete list of key transfers who have signed with stats from their previous schools.

Here are the key players who have left their program according to media reports, Verbal Commits.com, Rotowire.com, Twitter and other social media. Stay tuned as we will update this list every day and eventually compile the entire list of key players with their stats. Key players are listed in alphabetical order.

April 3 (before 4pmET)

G Terrell Brown (6-1, 175). Former school: Seattle (20.8ppg, 6.2rpg, 1.6spg, 4.8apg). New school: ?

Comments: A big blow to a mid-major school. A big-time scorer who has one year left because he started his career at a juco.

G Jordan Burns (6-0, 175). Former school: Colgate (15.8ppg, 36% 3pt). New school: ?

Comments: One of the top guards in the portal right now. Big-time scorer who also averages 4.5 assists per game and want to go through pre-draft process.

G J.J. Caldwell (6-1, 185). Former school: New Mexico (5.8ppg, 5.7apg). New school: ?

Comments: Another New Mexico player leaving. Caldwell played in just 13 games last season due to some off-the-court issues.

G Sean East (6-3, 185). Former school: UMass (9.3ppg, 4.9apg). New school ?

Comments: Pretty good point guard who was solid in his first season. Has good size and will get a lot of quality looks.

G Umoja Gibson (6-1, 168). Former school: North Texas (14.5ppg, 1.4spg, 39.4% 3pt). New school: ?

Comments: You hate to see this happen to mid-major schools during this crisis. Very talented guard who can play both ends. Will have a lot of bigger programs after him.

G Jalen Harris (6-2, 166). Former school: Arkansas (4.2ppg, 2.4apg). New school: Georgetown.

Comments: The Hoyas are desperate for bodies. Harris started his career at New Mexico so he can play right away.

C Tyler Mattos (6-11, 250). Former school: Bowling Green (4.9ppg, 5.1rpg). New school: ?

Comments: A big man that can rebound is always going to get a look. From New Hampshire, so maybe transfers closer to home. Has two years left, but probably will have to sit ou.t

G Davion Mintz (6-3, 185). Former school: Creighton (9.7ppg, 41.6% FG, 34.7% 3pt in 2018-19). New school: ?

Comments: Missed last season due to injury. Has one year left.

F Cordell Pemsi (6-9, 248). Former school: Iowa (2.8ppg, 3.2rpg). New school: ?

Comments: Pemsi has an extra year left because he played in just two games in 2018. He'll be eligible right away and might be best to transfer to a lesser conference.

F Bobby Planutis (6-8, 200). Former school: St. Bonaventure (5.4ppg, 4.2rpg). New school: Purdue-Fort Wayne

Comments: Planutis started his career at Mount St. Mary's, moved on to St. Bonnies and now is moving on again. A role player in the frontcourt. Two years left.

G Deon Stroud (6-5, 197). Former school: UTEP (4.3ppg, 43.5% FG). New school: Fresno State.

Comments: Stroud will have three years left and is coming closer to home. Has some potential and is worth taking a shot on.

G Kyle Sturdivant (6-3, 200). Former school: USC (2ppg). New school: Georgia Tech.

Comments: Had just one season with USC and only played 8.4 minutes per game. So should get more playing time in Atlanta, but will likely have to sit out this season.

F Arnaldo Toro (6-8, 248). Former school: George Washington (6.5ppg, 7.0rpg). New school: St. John's.

Comments: A big body who has one year left. Very good rebounder.

F Holland Woods (6-1, 180). Former school: Portland State (17.7ppg, 30.4% 3pt, 5.2apg).

Comments: Good point guard who has one year left. Big scorer who also averages 2.1 steals per game.
