Former Wisconsin basketball commit transfers to new school

The transfer portal has been incredibly active across NCAA men’s basketball and former UW-Green Bay standout guard Noah Reynolds announced his next destination Monday.

Reynolds will head to TCU after averaging 20 points, 4.5 assists and 3.7 rebounds while shooting 51.1 percent per game during the 2023-2024 season, his only one with the Phoenix.

The 6-foot-3 athlete spent two seasons at Wyoming before he announced he’d be transferring to Wisconsin last April, ultimately having a change of heart and joining his brother Nic, an assistant coach at Green Bay.

The Badgers have yet to reel in anyone in the portal after seven players from the 2023-24 roster have either announced their intentions to transfer or have already transferred to new programs.

Former Wisconsin Badgers transfer commit reenters portal

Former Wisconsin Badgers transfer commit reenters portal

The Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team will certainly be active in the transfer portal this offseason and a familiar face entered his name into the portal Monday.

Junior guard Noah Reynolds, who originally committed to Wisconsin last spring before having a change of heart, is back in the transfer portal once again after one season with UW-Green Bay.

Reynolds produced 20 points, 4.5 assists and 3.7 rebounds per game while shooting 51.1% from the field in his only campaign with the Phoenix. He’ll be a popular commodity on the open market.

It’s unclear if Greg Gard and the Badgers would still be interested in him as a potential addition, but they’ve certainly been in the past.

Noah Reynolds picks new landing spot

After he backed out of his commitment to join the Badgers next year, Noah Reynolds announced Tuesday that he’s transfering to UW-Green Bay.

After he backed out of his commitment to join the Badgers’ men’s basketball team next season, Noah Reynolds announced Tuesday that he’s transferring to UW-Green Bay. The 6-foot-3 athlete will head to the same program where his brother Nic Reynolds was just hired as an assistant coach.

Reynolds averaged 14.5 points per game in his second season with Wyoming before entering the transfer portal and announced that he’d be transferring to Madison on April 5, which he subsequently backed out of on Wednesday (April 19).

With St. John’s transfer wing AJ Storr choosing to join the Badgers’ men’s basketball program out of the portal in mid April, it’s possible that Reynolds didn’t see the role he wanted happening with Wisconsin.

Pair that with the family connection at Green Bay, it’s fully reconcilable that he had second thoughts and went another direction. For Greg Gard and his staff, they could potentially fill Reynolds’ spot with an additional transfer, potentially a big man.

Transfer commit backs out of joining Badgers

Wyoming transfer guard Noah Reynolds announced Wednesday that he is backing out of his intention to commit to Wisconsin.

Wyoming transfer guard Noah Reynolds announced Wednesday that he is backing out of his intention to commit to Wisconsin. He has officially reopened his recruitment in the portal.

Reynolds originally stated on April 5 that he’d be joining the Badgers in 2023 after spending two seasons with Wyoming. The 6-foot-3 guard averaged 14.5 points in his second year with the Cowboys and was expected to give the Badgers a big boost in the backcourt.

Considering the fact that Wisconsin reeled in 6-foot-6 wing AJ Storr from St. John’s on Thursday (April 13), it’s possible that Reynolds felt like his role wouldn’t be what he wanted in Madison.

Although it’s tough to see him change his mind, Greg Gard and his staff could now acquire an additional asset from the portal, potentially addressing their need for another big man behind Steven Crowl and Tyler Wahl.

Badgers land transfer guard from St. John’s

Wisconsin got the commitment of St. John’s transfer guard AJ Storr on Thursday after he spent one season with the Red Storm.

Wisconsin got the commitment of St. John’s transfer guard AJ Storr on Thursday after he spent one season with the Red Storm. The 6-foot-6 athlete visited Madison this past weekend and quickly made the decision to join the Badgers.

Storr was the 97th ranked prospect in the class of 2022 and he will now provide Wisconsin with some much-needed size and shooting ability at the wing position. With Jordan Davis leaving, Storr will likely step right into a significant role in 2023-2024.

In his one campaign with St. John’s, Storr averaged 8.8 points and 1.9 rebounds while shooting 43.4 percent from the field and 40.4 percent from deep.

With Tyler Wahl returning for another season along with their entire starting lineup, the Badgers have now acquired two talented guards in AJ Storr and Noah Reynolds (Wyoming) in the transfer portal.

There’s no reason to think that Greg Gard and his Wisconsin squad won’t bounce back next season and once again challenge for a Big Ten title.

Wisconsin basketball officially announces the addition of Noah Reynolds

Wisconsin officially announces the addition of the Wyoming transfer

Following his commitment to the Badgers last week, Wyoming transfer Noah Reynolds was officially announced by Wisconsin on Thursday.

The 6-foot-3 guard made a massive jump in both role and production from his first to his second year at Wyoming. He went from a sparingly used reserve to an impact player despite injury issues. Reynolds appeared in 19 games last season and averaged 14.5 points, 2.2 rebounds and a pair of assists per game.

“Wisconsin was one of the first teams to reach out to me once I hit the transfer portal,” Reynolds told UWBadgers.com. “The most important thing to me, and something that stood out throughout my visit, was that nothing is promised here. That’s what I was looking for. A lot of places promise things and it’s not always the case. For me, it’s all about the work you put forth to commit to a team. They knew my situation and knew what I was looking for. I respect the morals of the program, and know that they recruit the right type of players.”

St. John’s transfer guard visits Madison

Former St. John’s guard AJ Storr visited UW-Madison on Monday after the team reached out to him on the transfer portal.

Former St. John’s guard AJ Storr visited UW-Madison this weekend after the team reached out to him on the transfer portal. The 6-foot-6 athlete averaged 8.8 points and 1.9 rebounds in his one season with the Red Storm.

With Storr visiting the Badgers, it proves that Greg Gard and his coaching staff are not done in the portal even after acquiring guard Noah Reynolds last week (Wyoming). As Jordan Davis looks for a new team following his entrance into the transfer portal, it’s clear that the Badgers are looking to find additional depth at the wing position.

Coming off of a rather disappointing season for Wisconsin, any additions out of the portal will at least pique the interest of fans heading into the offseason. On paper, the Badgers are expected to be one of the most experienced teams in the Big Ten in 2023.

What is Wisconsin basketball getting in transfer guard Noah Reynolds?

What is Wisconsin basketball getting in transfer guard Noah Reynolds?

The Badgers made a transfer portal splash on Wednesday when Wyoming guard Noah Reynolds committed to Wisconsin.

By gaining Reynolds’ services, Wisconsin lands an Illinois native who has proven he can score at the collegiate level.

The 6-foot-3 guard made a massive jump in both role and production from his first to his second year at Wyoming. He went from a sparingly used reserve to an impact player despite injury issues. Reynolds appeared in 19 games last season and averaged 14.5 points, 2.2 rebounds and a pair of assists per game.

Check out Reynolds announcing his commitment to the Badgers via Twitter:

So, what is Wisconsin getting in the transfer guard? Here is a look:

Wyoming transfer commits to Wisconsin

Former Wyoming guard Noah Reynolds committed to join the Badgers’ men’s basketball team next season after entering the transfer portal following two seasons with the Cowboys.

Former Wyoming guard Noah Reynolds committed to join the Badgers’ men’s basketball team next season after entering the transfer portal following two seasons with the Cowboys.

Reynolds appeared in 19 games with Wyoming this past season, averaging 14.5 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists while playing 25 minutes per contest. The 6-foot-3 athlete could step right into Jordan Davis’s role off the bench in 2023-2024. Davis entered the transfer portal last week.

With the Badgers’ offense being the biggest contributor to their downfall this past campaign, it’s obvious Greg Gard and his staff were aggressive in their pursuit of options such as Reynolds.

Considering Tyler Wahl is returning for a fifth season, Wisconsin will certainly have a very experienced roster. It’s possible they challenge for a Big Ten title once again.
