Auburn guard K.D. Johnson will enter the transfer portal after three seasons on the Plains.

Having spent each of the last three seasons with the Tigers program, Auburn guard K.D. Johnson is reportedly entering his name into the transfer portal according to multiple reports.

Johnson, a senior, appeared in 35 games this past season at Auburn, one of which he started.

Across his three seasons at Auburn combined, Johnson started in 32-of-102 games with the Tigers since the 2021-22 campaign, averaging 9.4 PPG, 2.2 RPG, 1.4 APG, and 1.4 SPG. Johnson also shot a combined 38.2% from the field, as well as 29.8% from three and 72.5% from the free throw line.

Prior to Auburn, Johnson originally began his collegiate career at Georgia during the 2020-21 season, where he was a Freshman All-SEC selection with the Bulldogs. Appearing in 16 games off Georgia’s bench, Johnson averaged 13.5 PPG, 2.8 RPG, 1.2 APG, and 1.8 SPG, while also shooting 42.2% from the field and 38.7% from three.
