Wisconsin men’s basketball is in a crucial offseason stage.
The Badgers are looking to replace four seniors and another four players who are entering the transfer portal. The transfer portal is open through April 21 although players do not necessarily need to commit to their new school during the 15-day window.

Here is a running list of players who are either joining or departing the Badgers via the transfer portal:
The Badgers are awaiting their first transfer portal addition. UW did get an international commitment from Australian point guard Owen Foxwell.

Wisconsin Badgers leaving via transfer portal
John Blackwell
While not necessarily a surprise, Blackwell’s departure is a major loss for the Badgers. The 6-foot-4 guard was eighth in the Big Ten with 19.1 points per game and scored 30-plus points in five games in 2025-26. He was rated the seventh-best transfer nationally in USA TODAY’s rankings, as of April 9.

Aleksas Bieliauskas
Bieliauskas was an immediate contributor for the Badgers in his only season in Madison, appearing in all 35 games as a freshman. He gained a starting role in December and scored at least six points in four of UW’s last five games.

Jack Robison
Robison was the first UW player to announce his plans to enter the transfer portal. Robison rarely saw the court in his two seasons, totaling 23 career points in 48 minutes. The 6-foot-6 forward will have two years of eligibility remaining.

Riccardo Greppi
Greppi, like Robison, struggled to find an on-court role in his two seasons in Madison. The 6-foot-10 forward scored eight points in 19 minutes in 2024-25 and went scoreless in 19 minutes in 2025-26.
