Louisville Forward Emmanuel Okorafor Enters Transfer Portal
The 9th Cardinal enters the transfer portal
By Caleb Hall
Louisville basketball has gone through a lot of hardship and hope in the past few weeks, however, something that stays consistent with the Cardinals is the continuation of players entering the transfer portal. Most of Louisville's players have entered the portal, and that continued today with forward Emmanuel Okorafor.

So, Ty-Laur Johnson is the only scholarship player who is not in the portal. I do believe Pat Kelsey could bring one or more back. Most of the guys in the portal are still on campus and many will meet…
Okorafor played sparatically in the past 2 seasons for Kenny Payne at Louisville. He did not play consistent minutes for the Cardinals last season, but the minutes he did play showed some determination and hustle on the court. Even if Okorafor didn't have the talent that players usually do that play the the University of Louisville.
Okorafor averaged 2.2 points, 2.2 rebounds, and shot 64.1% from the floor overall last season. While Kelsey is meeting with the players that have decided to enter the trasnfer portal on Louisville, Okorafor is one of the least likley to stay due to playing time alone.
Ty-Laur Johnson is the last player to remain on the Louisville roster as of right now.
