Texas Tech forward Devan Cambridge commits to UCF out of NCAA transfer portal

Former Texas Tech, Arizona State and Auburn forward Devan Cambridge has committed to UCF out of the NCAA transfer portal, according to a report from CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein. He did so after spending two seasons with the Red Raiders.

Cambridge is a well-traveled player at this point, set to play for his fourth different school during the 2025-26 campaign. He has appeared in just 14 games in the last two years, with injuries taking a toll.

The 6-foot-6 prospect suffered a torn ACL during the 2023-24 season that greatly limited him over the next two years. He had averaged a career-best 10.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game for Texas Tech before the injury.

The most consistent year of Devan Cambridge’s career came in 2022-23 at Arizona State, where he appeared in 36 games and started 35 of them. He averaged 9.8 points and 5.4 rebounds during that season, while also showing he could shoot from the perimeter.

Cambridge has a career 29.3% 3-point percentage, and he’s not afraid to shoot them. He has taken 410 career attempts from downtown.

All of those qualities will make him a solid pickup for UCF, at least in the event he can get and stay healthy. That will be a big key going forward.

In his career, across three programs — Devan Cambridge spent his first three seasons at Auburn — he has played in 141 games and started 78 of them. So he’s a player with considerable experience.

Prior to enrolling at Auburn, Devan Cambridge was rated as a three-star prospect and the No. 229 overall recruit in the country, according to the On3 Industry Rankings. He also checked in as the No. 53 small forward in the class and the No. 8 overall player in the state of Arizona, hailing from Phoenix (AZ) Hillcrest Prep.
