CBB Transfer Portal: Top 5 Landing Spots for Great Osobor

5. Arizona Wildcats

The Arizona Wildcats need some help on the wing, and Great Osobor would be an exciting fit to replace the graduated Keshad Johnson. Arizona is probably the best team that has shown an interest in Osobor, and the Wildcats need to add some extra quality as they migrate to the Big 12. Osobor would help replace some of the rebounding lost by the departure of Oumar Ballo. Osobor has shown he can handle the ball on the perimeter and attack off the dribble. He would provide a bit of lineup versatility for Tommy Lloyd.

2. Kentucky Wildcats

Great Osobor is meeting with new Kentucky head coach Mark Pope this weekend. Pope, formerly the head coach at BYU, would be pretty familiar with the Utah State big man, and Osobor likely knows exactly what he’d get playing for Pope. On the surface, it’s not a perfect fit. Osobor got the ball in post-up situations more than almost anyone in the country (fifth most per Synergy), something that Pope’s system will not replicate. Kentucky is a huge stage, which Osobor could be looking for. Osobor is a proven and productive player, and Kentucky needs to start filling out a roster. Plus, Osobor will be very aware of the NIL opportunities the Wildcats fanbase would present.

3. Kansas State Wildcats

The Kansas State Wildcats have been in the market for a big guy all portal season. They tried to make a run at Oumar Ballo and have tried for Clifford Omoruyi but have not been able to land that big fish yet. Great Osobor is not on that level and is a different type of player, but with Cam Carter leaving for LSU, Osobor would fill a hole and provide lineup flexibility. Jerome Tang needs a strong season after missing the NCAA Tournament, and the Big 12 is not getting any easier with Arizona entering the league. The Wildcats could use a veteran scorer in the post, and Osobor’s ability to handle the ball and attack off the dribble would be a new wrinkle for their offense.

4. Colorado Buffaloes

The Colorado Buffaloes made the Round of 32 and showcased a productive offensive system that got past Florida in one of the more entertaining games of the NCAA Tournament. Head coach Tad Boyle has a ton of work to do if the Buffaloes are to get back there in 2024-2025. Multiple vital contributors, including big man Eddie Lampkin, have left the program, and Colorado has aggressively pursued several potential replacements. The location would make sense for Great Osobor and keep him close to the region of the country where he has played his collegiate career thus far.
