The college basketball transfer portal is active, with top players seeking new teams after the national championship. Louisville has secured key additions, including former Kansas center Flory Bidunga and former Oregon guard Jackson Shelstad.
Transfer portal rankings: Top 20 players still uncommitted in men's basketball
When midnight struck moments after Michigan's 69-63 win over UConn in the national championship game on April 7, the rush for teams to add the top available talent was on. A few top players have already signed with their new schools in the seven days since.
Louisville is an early winner of the transfer portal, having added former Kansas center Flory Bidunga and former Oregon guard Jackson Shelstad as a package duo, as the pair of veterans announced the move simultaneously on April 12. Bidunga was USA TODAY's No. 2-ranked player available before committing, only behind Iowa State forward Milan Momcilovic.
There are still plenty of talented high-major players available, though. Over 1,900 players have entered the transfer portal so far, after all.
Here's a look at our top players still available in the 2026 college basketball transfer portal:

Transfer portal rankings: Top uncommitted players in college basketball
Rankings based on players available as of 5:24 p.m. ET on Monday, April 13.
1. Milan Momcilovic, Iowa State
Iowa State forward Milan Momicilovic entered the transfer portal on April 12, and instantly became the top player available thanks to his length and 3-point shooting ability. The 6-foot-8 junior averaged 16.9 points per game last season while shooting an NCAA-leading 48.7% from distance, which was 1.6% better than Liberty's Brett Decker Jr., who had the second-best mark.
Momcilovic has 101 starts in 102 career games for the Cyclones, and led the No. 2-seeded team in scoring this season. He's also entering his name in the 2026 NBA Draft while in the portal.
2. Juke Harris, Wake Forest
Sophomore guard Juke Harris took a massive leap in 2025-26, going from 6.1 points per game off the bench as a true freshman to one of the ACC's top scorers at 21.4 points per game as a sophomore. The 6-foot-7 guard also averaged 6.5 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game, and shot 33.2% from 3-point range on 7.5 attempts per game.
Harris offers elite length at guard and also top-tier scoring ability, making him one of the top available players.
3. Allen Graves, Santa Clara
Santa Clara forward Allen Graves previously declared for the NBA draft before later entering the transfer portal April 10.
The 6-foot-9 true freshman averaged 11.8 points with 6.5 rebounds per game this season off the bench, but he established himself as one of the best mid-major players late in the year. He scored 17 points with seven rebounds and a block in Santa Clara's NCAA Tournament loss to Kentucky, even making a go-ahead 3-pointer in the final seconds before Kentucky's Otega Oweh forced overtime.
Graves has three seasons of eligibility left and is already on the NBA draft radar, making him an enticing prospect.
4. Massamba Diop, Arizona State
Arizona State center Massamba Diop emerged as one of the top rim-protecting big men in the Big 12 this season despite being a true freshman, averaging 2.1 blocks per game. The 7-foot-1 former 3-star prospect from Senegal also averaged 13.6 points with 5.8 rebounds per game.
The market for top-tier big men is expensive, and Diop will be near the top.
5. Rob Wright, BYU
A former five-star recruit, Rob Wright had a solid true freshman year at Baylor, averaging 11.5 points with 4.2 assists per game. He transferred in conference to BYU for the 2025-26 season and turned in one of the best campaigns in the conference.
Wright upped his scoring average to 18.1 points per game last season, along with 3.5 rebounds and 4.6 assists as projected No. 1 pick AJ Dybantsa's running mate. Perhaps he wants to show he can be a No. 1 option at a new school as a transfer.
