What does UConn men’s basketball need from the transfer portal this offseason?

UConn men’s basketball will be in a transition period this offseason, more so than last year, when all major returners, save for James Bouknight, came back to Storrs for another go.

However, defensive wunderkind Isaiah Whaley and key bench player Tyler Polley exhausted their collegiate eligibility, while Tyrese Martin announced on Tuesday that he will enter the NBA Draft, rather than use his extra year given to athletes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, though RJ Cole has yet to announce whether he will use his final year of eligibility at all, let alone for UConn, he took part in Senior Day ceremonies and it seems unlikely he will return.
