Michigan center Hunter Dickinson enters name in transfer portal
The transfer portal has a massive new addition — and it’s not one many expected.
On Friday afternoon, Michigan’s 7-foot-1 center, Hunter Dickinson, entered his name in the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. The three-time All-Big Ten performer averaged 18.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks per game as a junior in 2022-23 while shooting 56 percent from the field.
Dickinson produced 31 double-doubles during his time with the Wolverines, totaling 1,600+ points and 750+ rebounds in the process. He’ll be one of the most sought-after options available in the portal. On3’s top transfer portal players list already has Dickinson ranked No. 1.

Michigan prepared to offer No. 1 recruit $10.5M over 4 years
The biggest question for the Big Blue Nation revolves around whether or not Kentucky might show some interest in the talented big man. As 247Sports’ Travis Branham points out, Dickinson took an unofficial visit to UK in high school when he was a four-star recruit out of Maryland, although that was several years ago now at this point. Could be something, could be nothing.
Dickinson matched up against Kentucky this past season as part of the London basketball showcase at the O2 Arena in England, dropping 23 points, nine rebounds, and three blocks on 10-22 shooting in 35 minutes played. The ‘Cats came out with the victory though, beating Michigan 73-69 behind Oscar Tshiebwe‘s 14 points and 13 rebounds.
