Georgetown's men's basketball team, a popular preseason pick as an under-the-radar team that could make some noise this season, suffered a significant loss Monday that will shift the landscape of the Big East Conference the rest of this season.

Sophomore starters James Akinjo and Josh Leblanc have entered the transfer portal and no longer members of the team effective immediately, according to multiple media reports Monday evening.
