Former Miami shooting guard Austin Swartz committed to Creighton out of the NCAA transfer portal. He spent one year with the Hurricanes.

During his lone season with the Hurricanes, Swartz played in 29 games. He finished with 5.9 rebounds per game, one rebound per game, 0.9 assists per game, shot 37.7% from the floor and 30.4% from three-point range.

As a member of the Class of 2024, Swartz was a four-star recruit out of Concord (Conn.) Cannon School, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was the No. 5 overall prospect in the state, the No. 13 shooting guard in the class and the No. 51 overall prospect in the class.

Austin Swartz commits to Creighton out of portal

Swartz comes in at a good time considering Pop Isaacs is gone. The guard committed to Houston out of the transfer portal.

Isaacs transferred to Creighton last offseason after spending two years at Texas Tech. He only played eight games for the Bluejays before suffering a season-ending hip injury in December. However, Isaacs was spectacular in his short time on the court.

He averaged 16.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game while shooting 41.0% from the field and 38.3% from beyond the arc. Isaacs wasn’t simply padding his stats against subpar competition, either.

In Isaacs’ final game of the season, he tallied 27 points, seven rebounds and four assists on 6-9 shooting from downtown against Kansas. He also had 25-point outings earlier in the season against Texas A&M and Nebraska.

In his two years at Texas Tech, Isaacs made 59 appearances and 58 starts. He averaged 15.9 points per game during his sophomore season but wasn’t nearly as efficient from range, knocking down just 29.3% of his 3-point attempts.
