Jeremiah Wilkinson

With Brown and Ryan Conwell officially gone, Pat Kelsey must go get a guard who can play with poise and take over the game on offense. Georgia transfer Jeremiah Wilkinson emerges as a perfect target for Kelsey and his style of offense.

The 4-star transfer is a former ACC player, as he committed to Cal and played his freshman season for the Golden Bears, where he won the Sixth Man of the Year award after averaging 15.1 points and shooting 40 percent from the field off the bench. He then transferred to Georgia, where he stepped it up a notch in his sophomore season, splashing 79 3’s and averaging 2.5 per game, and averaging 17.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists, while shooting 41 percent from the field per game.

The 4-star transfer is one of the best iso guards in the Transfer Portal, as he is incredibly fast and can take on nearly any defender one-on-one. He would fit perfectly in Kelsey’s system, and he now ranks No. 16 overall and No. 3 among combo guards.
