Wofford transfer BJ Mack cuts list of finalists to 10

The Tigers remain in the mix for one of the most sought-after grad transfers in college basketball as they made the cut for Wofford forward BJ Mack, who recently trimmed his list down to 10 teams according to his Instagram account.

The 6-foot-8 native of Charlotte become a full-time starter for the Terriers over the last two seasons, and he averaged 16.6 points and 5.6 rebounds in 2022-23 while shooting 49.2% from the field. He entered the transfer portal after the season, and he’s received quite a bit of attention since.

Alongside LSU, Mack included Florida, Arkansas, Iowa, Butler, Xavier, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt, Michigan and South Carolina among his finalists.

LSU is competing with a number of good programs here, but this team could really use the help after a disappointing Year 1 campaign from coach Matt McMahon, who went just 2-16 in SEC play and lost 14 straight games from December to February.
