The men’s basketball transfer portal window is almost closed.Players have until Tuesday to enter their names in the transfer portal ahead of the 2026-27 season. They don’t have to sign with a school by Tuesday, but barring a coaching change or another unexpected circumstance, players who aren’t in the portal by Tuesday won’t be changing schools ahead of next season.Here are some of the most impactful players who have transferred to another school so far. They’re listed by their On3 transfer portal ranking.

There are still hundreds of other players who are in the transfer portal who have not chosen a new school yet.Flory Bidunga was one of Kansas' most consistent players during a turbulent year in Lawrence. Now he's off to Louisville.

Yes, even more important than Darryn Peterson.

Kansas’ play dropped precipitously when Bidunga was off the court. He averaged 13.3 points and 9 rebounds per game along with 2.6 blocks. After entering the portal a year ago and deciding to return to KU, Bidunga followed through with his transfer thoughts this offseason.

His transfer to the Cardinals came at the same time as former Oregon guard Jackson Shelstad (No. 17) and Louisville has also landed former Arkansas forward Karter Knox. G PJ Haggerty (No. 7, Kansas State to Texas A&M)Haggerty is heading to his fifth school in five seasons after stops at TCU, Tulsa, Memphis and Kansas State. He’s averaged at least 20 points per game in each of his three full seasons after playing just six games and 54 total minutes as a freshman with the Horned Frogs.Haggerty posted 23.4 points per game on 49% shooting in what was otherwise a disastrous year for Kansas State.

The Wildcats finished 15th in the Big 12 and coach Jerome Tang was fired during the season as the administration attempted to can him for cause. F David Punch (No. 10, TCU to Texas)Punch averaged 14 points per game this past season for the Horned Frogs and made more than half his field goal attempts. He also led the team with 6.8 rebounds per game.

The Texas native was the No. 6 player in the state out of high school, though he wasn’t seriously recruited by the Longhorns, who made the Sweet 16 after sneaking into the NCAA tournament as a No. 11 seed.Stefan Vaaks averaged nearly 16 points a game for the Providence Friars last season.

The Estonian averaged 15.8 points as a freshman for the Friars in 2025-26, though he could stand to improve his efficiency. Vaaks shot just 40% from the field, though over half his attempts were from behind the arc, where he was a 35% shooter.

The Illini should be one of the best teams in the Big Ten again. G Isaiah Johnson (No. 12, Colorado to Texas)Johnson spent just one season with the Buffaloes and starred for one of the worst teams in the Big 12 a season ago. He led the team with nearly 17 points per game even though he started just 15 of 32 games.

Texas has added four four-star players through the transfer portal so far as they look for a better regular-season showing in Sean Miller’s second season. C Aiden Sherrell (No. 14, Alabama to Indiana)Sherrell had 11 points and six rebounds a game for the Crimson Tide and is part of an Indiana class that currently tops On3’s rankings. The Hoosiers have also added Villanova’s Bryce Lindsay, SMU’s Samet Yigitoglu and Notre Dame guard Markus Burton along with former Duke forward Darren Harris and Georgia Tech’s Jaeden Mustaf.Can Indiana’s Darian DeVries work the transfer portal as well as Curt Cignetti?G Dedan Thomas (No. 18, LSU to Houston)Thomas spent just one season with the Tigers and was a bright spot in an otherwise moribund season under now-former coach Matt McMahon.

Thomas was the team’s second-leading scorer with 15.3 points per game, and led the team with 6.5 assists per contest. However, he played in just 16 games after undergoing season-ending surgery for a left foot injury in February. G Terrence Hill Jr. (No. 24, VCU to Tennessee)Hill was VCU’s leading scorer in 2025-26 as he averaged 15 points per game off the bench.

He shot 46% from the field and the Rams upset North Carolina in the first round of the NCAA tournament. At Tennessee, he’s part of a transfer class that includes Belmont’s Tyler Lundblade. The former Bruins guard had two seasons at Belmont after transferring from TCU.

He averaged 15.6 points per game a season ago. G Collin Chandler (No. 32, Kentucky to BYU)Chandler started 31 of 36 games for the Wildcats and was the team’s third-leading scorer with 9.7 points per game. The sophomore shot 41% from the 3-point line as he was Kentucky’s best long-distance shooter.His transfer was another coup for the Cougars, a
