Forward Mackenzie Mgbako will be looking for a new home after two seasons in Bloomington.
On Monday afternoon, Mgbako posted on social media he intends to both evaluate where he stands as it relates to the NBA, and enter the transfer portal.
In his post Mgbako says he also intends to keep an eye on the developments at Indiana.
In 2024-25 Mgbako started 31-of-32 games played. He was one of four Hoosiers to play all 32 games. The New Jersey product averaged 12.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game.

Mgbako was the Big Ten’s co-Freshman of the Year in 2024. He was one of two freshmen in the NCAA to score over 400 points, make at least 50 3-pointers, convert on 90-plus free throws, and grab at least 125 rebounds.
