College basketball transfer rankings 2024: How top five players who were in portal will impact their new teams

1. Johnell Davis (FAU to Arkansas)
Coming off an incredible 2023 Final Four run, FAU never really met the sky-high expectations it had in 2023-24. Still, with that iconic March Madness fresh in everyone's mind, Dusty May took the Michigan job, and seven of his former Owls players decided to leave FAU behind as well. Davis wasn't only the best of that bunch but, in David's eyes, the best of any transfer this offseason.


2. Kadary Richmond (Seton Hall to St. John's)
Richmond started his career as an intriguing but little-used player at Syracuse before transferring to Seton Hall, where he turned that intrigue into production. Richmond had four 20-point double-doubles, tied for third-most among Big East players, in 2023-24, and his 15.7 points per game were 11th in the conference. Furthermore, he graded out as the Pirates' top defender at EvanMiya.com.


3. Tucker DeVries (Drake to West Virginia)
Tucker and his father, Darian, were a package deal from Drake to West Virginia, and Tucker figures to be the Mountaineers' leader in the father-son duo's debut season there.


4. AJ Storr (Wisconsin to Kansas)
Entering his third program in three years, Storr is a big-time scorer who had 11 games of 20+ points last season.


5. Oumar Ballo (Arizona to Indiana)
A mountain of a man at 7-foot and 260 pounds, Ballo joins his third school in his sixth year of college: two at Gonzaga including a redshirt followed by three at Arizona.
