Tracking JMU Men’s Basketball Transfers in the 2024 Transfer Portal – Latest Updates from JMU Sports News

The 2024 Men’s Basketball Transfer Portal Tracker is in full swing, sponsored by Three Notch’d Brewing. With key graduations and the departure of head coach Mark Byington, JMU men’s basketball is looking to make some big moves in the transfer portal this offseason.

One major returner for the Dukes is rising junior guard Xavier Brown. Brown, a key player for JMU last season, announced his decision to return to the team. Known for his scoring ability and energetic defense, Brown has the potential to be a standout player in the Sun Belt conference.

In terms of additions, the Dukes have picked up rising sophomore forward Eddie Ricks III from Morehead State. Ricks led his former team in blocks and showed promise on both ends of the court. His defensive prowess and offensive skills make him a great fit for JMU’s system.

On the departure front, standout players like Terrence Edwards and Raekwon Horton are moving on to new opportunities. Edwards, the 2023-24 Sun Belt Player of the Year, has transferred to Louisville, while Horton, a junior forward, is looking to make an impact wherever he lands next.

With a mix of returning talent, new additions, and departures, the JMU men’s basketball team is gearing up for an exciting offseason in the transfer portal. Stay tuned for more updates as the team continues to shape its roster for the upcoming season.
