Mahaney is considered the No. 32 overall prospect to enter the transfer portal this offseason and the eighth-best point guard, per the On3 Industry Ranking. He will have two years of eligibility remaining at his next stop.

Out of Campolindo (CA) High School, Mahaney was a three-star recruit in the 2022 class before committing to Saint Mary’s over the likes of Xavier, Washington St., California, Northwestern, Princeton, and Yale. He is currently represented by Kluch Sports Group for NIL.
