Wisconsin Men's Basketball Makes Final Cut for SEC Transfer Center
The Badgers are in the mix for a frontcourt transfer from the SEC.
The Wisconsin men's basketball program is on the hunt for another big man to round out its 2024-25 roster and has just made the shortlist for a transfer portal target who could fill that void.
Jeff Borzello of ESPN reported that the Badgers have made the top four for former Georgia center Frank Anselem-Ibe. NC State, Georgia Tech, and Louisville are also in the mix, and a decision is expected sometime on Tuesday.
Standing at 6 foot 10 inches and 215 pounds, Anselem appeared in 29 of the Bulldogs' 37 games this past season, starting three of them. In nine minutes per game, the Nigerian native averaged 2.6 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks a night while shooting 62.8% from the field.
Anselem began his career at Syracuse, spending two seasons under Jim Boeheim before entering the portal and winding up at Georgia. He will have one year of eligibility remaining at his next stop.
