Wisconsin guard John Blackwell plans to enter the transfer portal while also going through the NBA draft process, he said Monday.
Blackwell, a standout in the Badgers’ backcourt, will pursue both options simultaneously as he evaluates his next step. Entering the portal allows him to explore potential college destinations, while the draft process provides a pathway to assess his professional prospects.
What it means for Wisconsin
Blackwell’s decision introduces uncertainty for Wisconsin’s roster outlook as the program heads into the offseason. With the transfer portal window open across college basketball, his status will be one of the key developments to monitor for the Badgers as they prepare for next season.
