The transfer portal added another talented player on Monday. This time it was out of Lexington, Kentucky.

According to Jeff Borzello of ESPN, Kentucky Wildcats guard Sahvir Wheeler has entered the transfer portal. The Texas native will be looking to join his third team in five seasons. Wheeler started with the Georgia Bulldogs in 2019, and after two seasons he transferred to Kentucky.

Wheeler played 57 games with the Bulldogs with 43 starts. He played in 51 games for the Wildcats with 43 starts. He averaged 10.3 points, 6.1 assists, and 1.1 steals over his career. Wheeler scored 7.7 points per game with 5.6 assists in 21 games in the 2022-2023 college basketball season for Calipari.

His best season came with the Georgia Bulldogs as a sophomore scoring 14 points per game with 7.4 assists and 1.7 steals.
