The 2021-2022 college basketball season is wrapping up, with the Final Four taking place over the weekend among Duke, North Carolina, Kansas and Villanova.
The Oregon Ducks are already on vacation, but coach Dana Altman and his staff have plenty of work to do to reshape the roster heading into next season. They are coming off a year in which a late-season collapse cost them a chance to compete in the NCAA Tournament.
While there are plenty of players who could depart, either via the transfer portal or the professional ranks, so far the only rotation player to hit the road is wing Eric Williams, who entered the transfer portal earlier in the week.
Williams is a 6-foot-6 combo guard who averaged 27 minutes per night for Oregon this past season, scoring 8.4 points and grabbing 4.6 rebounds while shooting 35.1% from the 3-point line.
Replacing his production is no easy task, although the Ducks have plenty of talent joining the team in their outstanding recruiting class of 2022.
Still, a veteran wing who can score, play solid defense and shoot from the 3-point line would be a really nice addition to this team via the transfer portal, in part to replace Williams and in part to add experience to a team that is losing Williams as well as Jacob Young.
The portal isn’t lacking options that fit those parameters. Below is a list of five candidates currently available that Altman and his staff should pursue if they want to help supplement the young talent on the roster with some experience and shooting.
