Overview
- Point guard Jada Williams said Wednesday she will pursue her senior year elsewhere, a day after forward Addy Brown announced she plans to enter the transfer portal.
- On3 Sports and the Des Moines Register report that Reese Beaty, Reagan Wilson, Lilly Taulelei and Aili Tanke are expected to enter when the portal opens April 6, with KCCI tallying estimates of up to seven departures.
- All-American center Audi Crooks has not decided whether to return, and her 25.8 points per game this season underscore how consequential her choice will be for Iowa State and the transfer market.
- Iowa State’s season ended March 21 with a 72-63 first-round loss to Syracuse, closing a 22-10 campaign that began 14-0 before a late slide.
- The April 6 opening sets the formal start for moves, leaving coach Bill Fennelly to navigate rapid roster turnover and target replacements through the portal.
