Baylor Lands Yale Transfer, Kentucky's Forward Market Dries Up
About this episode
Yale transfer Isaac Celiscar, a versatile six-foot-six forward, chose Baylor over Kentucky, leaving the Wildcats scrambling for a replacement for Mo Dioubate. Celiscar, a second-team All-Ivy honoree, averaged 13.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 3.2 assists last season. Despite early interest from Kentucky coach Mark Pope, Celiscar committed to Baylor. The forward market is tough for Kentucky, with several top prospects choosing other schools. Iowa States Milan Momcilovic and Santa Claras Adama Allen Graves remain available, but Kentucky needs to act fast to rebuild their frontcourt.

College Basketball News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Baylor Lands Yale Transfer, Kentucky's Forward Market Dries Up. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On April 22nd, Yale transfer Isaac Seleskar just picked a bailer over Kentucky, closing the door on a key replacement for Mo Dio Bay. This 6 foot 6 jumbo wing earned a second team all Ivy honors last season, averaging 13.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 3. Point 2 assists while shooting 57% inside, 41% from deep, and 80% at the line. Kentucky coach Mark Pope showed early interest with a Zoom call and an in-person visit drawn to Seleskar's versatility across positions, but talks fizzled out with no trip to Lexington ever happening. Meanwhile, Baylor ramped up after losing their star guard to the portal and locked him in quick. The Ford markets brutal for the Wildcats right now. St. Mary's Pollyis Morowskas went to Arizona State, Iowa's Alvaro Fulgeras to Louisville, Syracuse's Donnie Freeman to St. John's, and even Auburn's. Sebastian Williams-Adams flipped to Vanderbilt in minutes. That leaves Iowa State's Milan-Mom Salovic and Santa Clara's Adama Allen Graves as the top dogs still available, ranked number 3 and number 6.
Overall, the best power forwards in the portal. Pope's got to work some magic to land one and rebuild that front court punch.
