Oklahoma will more than likely be without one of their most consistent players the next time they step on the court.
Per Corey Evans of Rivals, Jamal Bienimey has thrown his hat into the transfer portal ring.
Oklahoma guard Jamal Bieniemy has entered his name into the Transfer Portal, a source tells @RivalsPortal.
Started 30 games as a sophomore for the Sooners last season. Giant playmaker at 6-foot-5

Bieniemy has started 47 of 65 games in his two seasons with the Sooners, averaging 5.1 points, 3.2 assists, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.2 steals per game.
Although not the most impressive stat line, Bieniemy was a key part of Oklahoma’s play on both ends of the court. Being thrown into the fire as a freshman in 2018-19, Bieniemy learned on the fly and held his own in one of the toughest conferences in the nation when it comes to guard play.
The 6-foot-5, ball handler was a four-star out of Katy, Texas (Tompkins High School) and chose the Sooners over Oklahoma State, Creighton, Michigan, and Iowa State among others.
It is not clear why Bieniemy is leaving Oklahoma or if he is simply testing the waters with other schools.
