Georgia basketball adds BYU transfer forward

Georgia Bulldogs basketball head coach Mike White dipped into the transfer portal and got another impact player in BYU Cougars forward Kanon Catchings.

As a freshman last season, the six-foot-nine sophomore, originally from Brownsburg, Indiana, averaged 7.2 points and 2.2 rebounds per game. Notably, 123 of his shot attempts were from beyond the arc, where he connected on 35% of his shots. However, he converted only 59% of his free throw opportunities.

Catchings played at Overtime Elite. The Bulldogs are building a nice reputation with Overtime Elite and have recently added Somto Cyril, a rising sophomore, and incoming freshman center Jackson McVay.
