Louisville forward Danilo Jovanovich enters NCAA transfer portal

On3 has learned that Louisville forward and former Miami player Danilo Jovanovich has entered the transfer portal following just one season with the Cardinals.

Jovanovich averaged just 1.2 points per game for Louisville with five starts across 20 total appearances during his lone year. His decision comes after a slew of other Cards already entered the portal in the aftermath of Kenny Payne’s firing.

Before starting his career at Miami as a freshman in the 2022-23 season, Jovanovich played high school ball in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, at Whitnall high school, the same place which produced Miami Heat star Tyler Herro a few years back. There he was a three-star prospect and On3’s No. 228 overall player in the 2022 class.
