BYU F Noah Waterman enters transfer portal

BYU forward Noah Waterman has entered the transfer portal, multiple outlets reported Monday.

Waterman has one season of eligibility remaining after being granted a medical redshirt in 2019-20 while at Niagara.

The transfer portal closed May 1, save for players at schools that went through a coaching change. BYU players had 30 days from April 12 — when Mark Pope left to take the Kentucky job — to enter the portal. Waterman informed new Cougars coach Kevin Young on Thursday and submitted the necessary paperwork over the weekend, per the reports.

The 6-foot-11 Waterman averaged 9.5 points and 5.4 rebounds in 33 starts last season, shooting 37 percent from the 3-point line.

He has averaged 7.8 points and 4.1 rebounds in 110 career games (81 starts) at Niagara, Detroit Mercy (2020-22) and BYU.
