Utah basketball lands guard Mike Sharavjamts out of transfer portal

The Utah Utes landed their sixth transfer portal addition of the offseason in San Francisco guard Mike Sharavjamts.

Mike Sharavjamts has found his next college basketball home, committing to join Craig Smith and the Utah Utes out of the transfer portal – according to a report from ESPN’s Jonathan Givony.

Sharavjamts began his college career at Dayton in the A10, starting 20 out of 32 games and averaging 5.6 points, 2.6 assists, and 1.9 rebounds. The 6’8 guard hit the portal and landed at San Francisco, starting all 34 games for the Dons and boosting his numbers up to 7.7 points, 2.7 assists, and 3.0 rebounds while shooting a solid 36% from the three point line.

However, Sharavjamts decided to hit the portal once again, and after revealing a top-six last last month – that did not include Utah – Mongolian Mike ultimately ended up with the Utes as they transition into the Big 12.

Sharavjamts has the size and range to play the one, two, or three, although he has not taken the leap many envisioned he would as a top ranked prospect coming out of high school. Still, he represents a versatile wing option for the Utes heading into the 2024-25 season.

The addition of Sharavjamts is the sixth transfer coming in for coach Smith, joining Ezra Ausar (East Carolina), Mason Madsen (Boston College), Miro Little (Baylor), Keanu Dawes (Rice), and Zach Keller (Wake Forest).

Utah still has three scholarships available, so they might not be done finalizing this roster heading into 2024-25.
