Penn State basketball adds another transfer portal commitment

Penn State's basketball program has plugged another hole on the roster with a commitment from the transfer portal. Roberts Blums, a guard most recently with Davidson, has given his commitment to the Nittany Lions and will join the program for the 2026-27 season.

Blums announced his commitment to the Nittany Lions with a post on his Instagram account. He will provide some shooting skills to a roster in need of shooters. Blums will come to Penn State with two seasons of eligibility remaining. Blusm led Davidson with 12.4 points per game last season despite being a bench player for the team. Blums could be a new three-point threat for the Nittany Lions, which is an area of need for the team next season.

Blumns has played professionally in Europe, so he has more experience than most college sophomores. Penn State has relied on the European flavor in making up its roster for next season, so Blums could fit right in.

Penn State has now added three players to the roster from the transfer portal. Blums joins guard Jay Rodgers and forward Brant Byers. Penn State has officially signed Rodgers to the program, according to a post from the team's social media account on Wednesday.
