Louisville basketball fans lost two players to the Transfer Portal last season, as the Cardinals lost their starting center, James Scott, and backup guard Koren Johnson. Both players ended up staying together and transferred to Ole Miss after the 2024-25 season, and recently, they made their debut for the Rebels.
Ole Miss defeated the Southeastern Louisiana Lions 88-58, and Rebels fans quickly saw what made Scott special as he was a force on the glass and was an elite rim protector all night long. Scott was one of the Cards' favorite players last year for his ability to protect the rim, but now Ole Miss is quickly seeing why he is a fun player to have on their team.
