FSU basketball lands Big South leading scorer in the transfer portal
Florida State landed one of the top scoring wings in the transfer portal as UNC Asheville standout Kameron Taylor committed following his visit.
Luke Loucks has landed his marquee transfer portal target. UNC Asheville wing Kameron Taylor committed to Florida State on Wednesday, per On3's Joe Tipton , giving the Seminoles one of the most productive scorers available in this cycle and a long-term building block at a position of critical need. Taylor was one of the most decorated players in the Big South this season, earning All-Conference First Team honors after averaging 18.
9 points, 5. 0 rebounds, and 3. 0 assists per game across 32 games — 30 of which he started.
His scoring output led the league and established him as one of the most coveted mid-major prospects to enter the portal this spring. The 6-foot-7 wing was ranked No. 78 overall in On3's transfer portal industry rankings, with interest from programs spanning nearly every conference in the country.
Florida State ultimately won out, closing the recruitment after hosting Taylor on campus for an official visit this past weekend. The Seminoles' pursuit moved quickly. What began as a Zoom call between Taylor and the FSU staff was followed by an official visit, and Taylor ultimately chose the Seminoles over a long list of suitors that included Indiana, Texas A&M, and others.
