• The 7-footer averaged 13.2 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 blocks in 37 starts during his lone season with the Wolverines in 2024-25.

  "This season exceeded all expectations," Wolf told ESPN. "We had an awesome year from a team standpoint. I didn't know what I was getting myself into with a brand-new roster and coaching staff, but Dusty May had an out-of-the-box plan for my development with a unique style of offense that allowed me to play my game. I wouldn't be in the position I am today without them letting me showcase my skill-set and developing me into the player I am today."

  A second-team All-Big Ten selection, Wolf ranks No. 19 in ESPN's latest NBA draft projections.

  After two seasons at Yale, Wolf transferred to Michigan and shot 49.7 percent from the field and 33.6 percent (38 of 113) from 3-point range this season. He had 15 double-doubles and helped the Wolverines reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.

  Ward has been coaching in the high school ranks since 2007, most recently with Florida State University Schools in Tallahassee since 2018.

  Florida A&M, located in Tallahassee, finished 14-17 in 2024-25 in its first season under coach Patrick Crarey II, who left to take the coaching position at Grambling State. The Rattlers, members of the SWAC, have not been to the NCAA Tournament since 2007.

  Ward swept most of the major college football honors in 1993, winning the Maxwell, Walter Camp, Johnny Unitas Golden Arm, Davey O'Brien and James E. Sullivan awards in addition to the Heisman. Florida State retired his No. 17 football jersey.

  Murray-Boyles, projected at No. 10 in ESPN's most recent mock draft, has drawn comparisons to Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green for his versatility and defensive prowess.

  "When people that know basketball watch me play, it's the smaller things that stand out," Murray-Boyles said. "I'm not one to get oohs and aahs, but know what it takes to win games and impact a team positively. I hang my hat on how hard I play and my unselfishness. I love to play defense."

• Meanwhile, former K-State guard Brendan Hausen, who entered the portal last Monday, announced via social media he will be playing his final college season in Iowa.

  The 5-foot-11 McDaniel was the Wildcats' second-leading scorer, averaging 11.4 points to go along with 4.9 assists and 1.7 steals per game.

Jayden Quaintance will be suiting up for Kentucky after all.

• The former Arizona State star committed to coach Mark Pope's Wildcats on Tuesday, his father Haminn Quaintance confirmed to ESPN.

  Quaintance, a projected 2026 NBA lottery pick, announced last week that he was entering the transfer portal.

  The 6-foot-9 forward originally committed to Kentucky as a five-star recruit in 2024 before backing off when coach John Calipari left to become the head coach at Arkansas.

  "We always liked Kentucky," Haminn Quaintance told ESPN. "... We were always hoping they'd come back around and recruit him. It didn't make sense for Coach Pope last time, trying to take on one of Cal's guys, but this time it really felt like he wanted him to be there."

  During his lone season in Tempe, Quaintance averaged 9.4 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.6 blocked shots in 24 games (all starts). He made the Big 12 All-Defensive and All-Freshman teams but the Sun Devils finished 13-20 (4-16).

  Quaintance had surgery to repair a torn ACL in his right knee on March 19 but is expected to be cleared for contact by September.

  Quaintance graduated from high school a year early and was only 16 when he arrived at Arizona State. He is not old enough to be eligible for the 2025 NBA Draft because he doesn't turn 19 until July 2026.

  Kentucky has been active in the transfer portal. In addition to Quaintance, Pope has received commitments from Jaland Lowe (Pitt), Mouhamed Dioubate (Alabama) and Kam Williams (Tulane).

We had so many incredible moments as a team. Even though we didn't go as far as I had hoped in the NCAA Tournament, this is exactly how I wanted my freshman year to go."

  The 19-year-old is the son of former NBA player Jason Richardson, who excelled at Michigan State before playing for five teams over 13 seasons in the NBA. He was selected by the Golden State Warriors with the fifth overall pick of the 2021 NBA Draft.

BYU freshman point guard Egor Demin announced Tuesday he will enter the 2025 NBA Draft.

• He leaves the Cougars after 33 games and averages of 10.6 points, 5.5 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.2 steals.

  Demin, a Moscow native, was selected to the Big 12 All-Freshman Team.

  He made the announcement on social media.

  "Thank you to all of my coaches, all of my teammates and all of the Cougar Nation for everything amazing that happened this year," he said in a 35-second video. "It's hard for me to express how much love I have to this place. I wanted to announce that I've decided to do the next step in my career and put my name in the 2025 NBA Draft. ... I'm a Cougar forever. This place is always going to stay in my heart."

  He landed in Provo, Utah, by way of Spain, where he moved at age 15 to play for Real Madrid. BYU paid a reported $1.5 million buyout to the Spanish club to sign the 6-foot-9 guard.

  ESPN projects that he will be a first-round pick, somewhere in the range of Nos. 11-20.

  Had he stayed at BYU, he would have teamed with incoming freshman AJ Dybantsa, a 6-foot-9 forward from Massachusetts who spent his senior season at Utah Prep. He is the No. 1 player in the 2025 class, per 247 Sports.

  BYU finished the 2024-25 season with a 26-10 (14-6 Big 12) record and lost to Alabama in the Sweet 16 round of the NCAA Tournament.
