Zach Clemence Expected to Leave KU

Next man up for KU right now means “next man entering The Portal.”

Kansas F Zach Clemence is expected to be the next Kansas player to enter NCAA Transfer Portal, according to sources with knowledge of the situation. He’ll be the third player to officially explore leaving KU since the season ended Saturday.

Clemence struggled to crack the rotation as a sophomore despite a promising freshman season. Ultimately, it comes down to fit with Clemence as his style as a 3-point shooting big man doesn’t fit the Bill Self system. He averaged 5.7 minutes per game this season.

Like Bobby Pettiford — who officially entered the Portal earlier Wednesday — Clemence’s decision doesn’t guarantee he’ll will leave KU. It just confirms he’ll at least explore his options elsewhere.

Clemence and Pettiford will join Cam Martin as the first three Jayhawks looking to transfer.
