UCLA men's basketball transfer portal live tracker 2026

Who's departing and who will UCLA add from the transfer portal?

Welcome to the 2026 UCLA men's basketball Transfer Portal Tracker. Here you will find rolling live updates in timeline format as each transfer and declaration event happens (both exiting and incoming). In addition, you'll find a scholarship breakdown, names we're tracking and more...

The transfer portal opens Tuesday, April 7 and closes Tuesday, April 21. 

LIVE LIST OF PLAYERS WHO HAVE ENTERED

UCLA projects to be very active in the transfer portal due to the team needing to replace Tyler Bilodeau, Donovan Dent, potentially Skyy Clark and a few bench players. If every Bruin with eligibility to return comes back, UCLA will have five returning scholarship players in Trent Perry, Eric Dailey Jr., Xavier Booker, Brandon Williams and Eric Freeny. Clark is petitioning the NCAA for another year of eligibility, and if he gets it, he's expected to play his final season with the Bruins. Clark getting another year would give UCLA six potential returning players. The Bruins will also add two scholarship players from the high school ranks in center Javonte Floyd and power forward Joe Philon. 

UCLA has 15 roster spots it can use, but the expectation is that the team will go into next season with 11-13 scholarship players. If everyone with eligibility to return comes back (including Clark), the Bruins will be at eight scholarship players. That means UCLA will add at least three transfer portal players, and that number will grow if a player who could return ends up transferring out.
