Kentucky<\/a> forward Mouhamed Dioubate<\/a> plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal after just one season with the Wildcats, a source told On3. <\/p>\n

The 6-foot-7 junior averaged 8.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 2.0 stocks (steals and blocks) in 21.6 minutes per game this season. Dioubate, a native of Queens, NY, shot 54.2% from the field, but just 21.4% from three-point range. <\/p>\n

His best game in SEC play came against Texas A&M, where he posted 19 points, seven rebounds, and three steals. During non-conference play, he had an impressive showing against Indiana, finishing with 14 points, 12 rebounds, and five steals.<\/p>\n

He becomes the second Kentucky player to enter the transfer portal, joining Jaland Lowe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dioubate arrived in Lexington last offseason after spending the first two years of his career at Alabama. He was a key figure in the Crimson Tide\u2019s Elite Eight run during the 2024-25 season.<\/p>\n

Coming out of high school, Dioubate was ranked as a four-star and the No. 99 overall recruit in the 2023 class, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking.<\/p>\n

The NCAA Transfer Portal will officially open on April 7 and close on April 21. The new 15-day window was enacted following a recommendation by the men\u2019s basketball oversight committee. Athletes don\u2019t have to commit to a new school by the April 21 deadline.<\/p>\n
