Another Gophers men’s basketball player enters NCAA transfer portal – Twin Cities

Gophers men’s basketball player Brennan Rigsby is entering the NCAA transfer portal, a source confirmed to the Pioneer Press on Thursday.

This leaves new men’s basketball coach Niko Medved with two scholarship players for next season: rising sophomores Isaac Asuma and Grayson Grove. Rigby’s exit leaves the U with 11 open scholarships for the 2025-26 season.

Rigsby, who joined Minnesota after two seasons at Oregon, averaged 5.4 points, shooting 38% from the field and 29% from 3-point range in 16.8 minutes per game last season.

The 6-foot-3 reserve guard ranged from being an X-factor in some games to a non-factor in others. He had 14 points in a road win at Penn State in February, and 20 points at Nebraska in March, but also didn’t score or play in a handful of games.

Rigsby, of De Beque, Colo., was classified as a senior last season but appears to have one more year of eligibility after recent court rulings on junior-college seasons. His exit was first reported by online outlet League Ready.
