Syracuse guard Naithan George plans to enter NCAA transfer portal
Syracuse guard Naithan George plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal, per CBS Sports’ Dushawn Lundon. George averaged 10. 9 points, 5.
4 assists and 3. 0 rebounds for the Orange this past season. The 2025-26 season was his first at Syracuse after spending his first two years in college at Georgia Tech .
He’s been productive in all three years of his college career, averaging 11. 1 points per game during his career and has started in 94 of the 95 games he’s appeared in. His best performance at Syracuse came during the regular season finale.
He scored 26 points, hauled in six rebounds and four blocks in an overtime loss vs. Pitt . He scored over 20 points on three occasions and was the team’s best passer with six games seeing him record 10 or more assists in a single game.
Syracuse would go on to finish the year with a 15-17 record to go along with a 6-12 record against the ACC. It was the third season for Syracuse under Adrian Autry, who was fired after the season. Autry brought White into the program, so his portal entry isn’t entirely unexpected.
