<a href="https://www.on3.com/college/baylor-bears/">Baylor</a> transfer point guard <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/rob-wright-155766/">Rob Wright</a> has signed with <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/byu-cougars/">BYU</a>, On3’s Pete Nakos has learned. He played one season with the Bears and will have three years of eligibility remaining.



Wright appeared in 35 games with 21 starts during the 2024-25 season and was named to the Big 12’s All-Freshman team. He averaged 11.5 points and 4.2 assists while shooting 35.3% from 3-point range. 



The 6-foot-1 point guard played high school basketball for Montverde Academy in Philadelphia, where he was a four-star recruit. He ranked as the No. 27 overall player and No. 2 point guard in the cycle <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/rankings/industry-player/basketball/2024/">according to the On3 Industry Ranking</a>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.



Wright is the second addition for BYU through the transfer portal this offseason, joining former <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/washington-huskies/">Washington</a> SF <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/dominique-diomande-250364/">Dominique Diomande</a>. The Cougars have also lost three players to the portal, including former four-star recruit <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/kanon-catchings-159040/">Kanon Catchings</a>.



BYU is coming off of a 26-10 finish this past season and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament. With last season’s starting point guard, <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/egor-demin-243480/">Egor Demin</a>, announcing that he plans to enter the NBA Draft as a projected lottery pick, Wright could step into that role for the Cougars in 2025-26. 



The college basketball <a href="https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/wire/basketball/">transfer portal</a> officially opened for business on Monday, March 24, and will close 30 days later on Tuesday, April 22. As of this writing, more than 1,000 players had already entered their names.



Last spring alone, 1,962 Division I players tested the portal waters. Based on the early numbers from this year, even more could follow. For the first time in history, more than half of the points scored in college basketball were scored by players from the transfer portal, not high school, in the 2024-25 season.



In data <a href="https://www.ncaa.org/news/2024/6/25/media-center-division-i-council-introduces-proposals-to-change-transfer-windows.aspx">gathered</a> over the first two years with transfer windows, the NCAA found most athletes enter the portal within the first four weeks of the portal opening. The study showed that 73% of men’s and women’s basketball undergraduate athletes entered during the first four weeks. That increased to 82% for men and 86% for women in 2024.
