UCF Lands Dean Brothers for 2026-27 Basketball

0:00On April 28th, UCF just locked in the Dean Brothers, Arturo and Mr. for their 2026-27 men's basketball roster. These Miami-Natives are retro transfers bringing serious back court heat, Arturo as a senior from Oklahoma State, and Mr. as a junior from Charleston. Arturo set out last season with the Knights due to transfer rules, but he's prime for his debut. His year got cut short by an ACL tear in November, limiting him to just three games. Both brothers are lockdown defenders, ranking high nationally in steals. Arturo led the country in steals at FIU before dominating at Oklahoma State, with over two and a half per game. Mr. exploded as a freshman at USC Upstate, topping his team in points, boards, and thefts. Their combo creates one of the nation's most disruptive guard duos. Arturo's quick hands plus Mr.'s length at 6 foot 6. They faced UCF before, and now they're boosting the Knights depth.

1:00This move ramps up UCF's defense as they gear up in the Big 12, setting the stage for a strong push next season.
