Miami (OH) transfer forward Kam Craft commits to Georgia Tech

Miami (OH) RedHawks transfer forward Kam Craft is taking his talents to the ACC. On3 has learned he’s committing to Georgia Tech via the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Last season, Craft averaged 13.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game with Miami (OH) in 34 appearances. He spent the prior season with Xavier, where he averaged 2.6 points per game in 15 appearances.

This will be his third team in as many seasons, and Georgia Tech is hoping there’s some magic to be made. The Yellow Jackets finished 17-17 this past season, falling to Jacksonville State in the 1st Round of the NIT.

Kam Craft played high school basketball at The Skill Factory (Atlanta, GA), where he was a four-star prospect, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

The college basketball transfer portal officially opened for business on Monday, March 24, and will close on Tuesday, April 22. As of this writing, more than 1,000 players had already entered their names.

Last spring alone, 1,962 Division I players tested the portal waters. Based on the early numbers from this year, even more could follow. For the first time in history, more than half of the points scored in college basketball were scored by players from the transfer portal, not high school, in the 2024-25 season.

In data gathered over the first two years with transfer windows, the NCAA found most athletes enter the portal within the first four weeks of the portal opening. The study showed that 73% of men’s and women’s basketball undergraduate athletes entered during the first four weeks. That increased to 82% for men and 86% for women in 2024.
