Siena Guard Gavin Doty Plans to Enter Transfer Portal After Syracuse Hires Gerry McNamara

The reported move puts a top mid‑major scorer on the market in a tight two‑week April window.

Overview

  • On3’s Joe Tipton reported that Siena’s Gavin Doty intends to enter the NCAA transfer portal, which does not open until April 7.
  • Gerry McNamara was confirmed as Syracuse’s head coach over the weekend, and his exit from Siena is already prompting roster shifts.
  • Doty averaged 18.0 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 2.2 assists this season and scored 21 against No. 1 seed Duke in the NCAA Tournament.
  • The 6‑foot‑5 guard is from Fulton, New York, about 25 miles from Syracuse, and he previously said he planned to keep playing for McNamara.
  • The portal window runs April 7–21, and outlets note Syracuse as a natural fit while some speculate power‑conference suitors could also pursue him.
