Wisconsin’s list of transfers for 2024-25 season

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Following is a list of known transfers among state high school basketball players who appear set to begin the 2024-25 school year at a different school than the one they finished at in 2023-24.<br><br><strong>Name:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='1390443' first='Davion' last='Hannah']<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Nicolet<br><strong>New School:</strong> Link Academy (Missouri)<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>The state's No. 1 collegiate prospect in the 2025 class announced earlier this summer he would be spending his senior season at Link Academy, a prep school located in Branson, Missouri. Link is one of the nation's top prep-school programs and has put together an 88-10 record over the past three seasons. Hannah, a 6-foot-6 forward who led Nicolet to WIAA Division 2 State Tournament appearances as a sophomore and junior after doing the same in Division 4 at Milwaukee Academy of Science as a freshman, recently cut his list of potential colleges to nine schools -- Alabama, Cincinnati, Louisville, Michigan State, North Carolina State, Ohio State, Pittsburgh and Wisconsin. He has visits set up with all nine schools in the fall. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1240335' first='Kai' last='Rogers']<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Wauwatosa West<br><strong>New School:</strong> Overtime Elite<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>Rogers opted to forgo his senior season at Wauwatosa West and instead earn some money while competing on the Overtime Elite circuit, a professional basketball league for 16-20 years-old players located in Atlanta. The 6-foot-10 senior post player has not yet cut his list of potential colleges, but is expected to do so in the near future. Oklahoma and Wisconsin might be in the lead for Rogers, who averaged 20.0 points and 13.6 rebounds as a junior for Wauwatosa West. <br><br><strong>Name:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='1481176' first='Chris' last='Davis Jr.']<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Sun Prairie West<br><strong>New School:</strong> DME Academy at St. John's Northwestern<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>The writing was on the wall for Davis leaving Sun Prairie West since the end of the high school season after his father, Chris Davis Sr., was let go as head coach of the Wolves midway through the season. Davis Jr. gets a new start and a fresh take on things at the DME Academy where he will be coached by former New Berlin West and Edgewood College guard Ben Wisniewski. Davis, a 6-foot-3 guard, averaged a state-best 40.8 points per game last winter. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1390441' first='Devin' last='Brown']<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Milwaukee Academy of Science<br><strong>New School:</strong> Overtime Elite/PPHoenix Prep<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>Brown announced on Twitter in June he would be going to Overtime Elite, but he could also potentially end up playing at the prep school level for PHHoenix Prep, which has several prep school teams in addition to its Overtime Elite squad. Brown, a skilled 6-foot-7 forward with multiple NCAA Division I scholarship offers, averaged 20.3 points and 10.2 rebounds as a junior at Milwaukee Academy of Science. <br><br><strong>Name:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='1481179' first='LaTrevion' last='Fenderson']<br><strong>Old School</strong>: The Prairie School<br><strong>New School: </strong>DME Academy at St. John's Northwestern<br><strong>Class 2026</strong><br><br>Fenderson, a 6-foot-5 wing prospect with scholarship offers from Iowa State and Wisconsin, among others, played all spring/summer with the [program_tooltip program_id='2076218' first='Wisconsin' last='Playground Club'] 16U program and is being recruited as a 2026 prospect, even though he attended Racine St. Catherine's as a freshman before playing at The Prairie School the past two seasons. Fenderson could potentially play two years for DME Academy, or he could opt to attend a new prep school next season. He loss is significant for The Prairie School as he averaged 22 points and 11 rebounds for the Hawks last season. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1371733' first='Juan' last='Guerrero Hernandez']<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Grafton<br><strong>New School: </strong>Veritas Academy<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>A dynamic athlete with length and skill, Guerrero Hernandez decided in late June to spend his senior year at Veritas Academy in California. Veritas is a member of the Nike EYBL Scholastic circuit. Guerrero Hernandez, now listed at 6-foot-5, owns several DI offers, including De Paul and Mississippi State. But his AAU director, Duane Wilson of the [program_tooltip program_id='2076218' first='Wisconsin' last='Playground Club'], says he isn't close to making a final decision yet. Guerrero Hernandez averaged 19.6 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists as a junior at Grafton.<br><br><strong>Name:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='1418518' first='Jeremiah' last='Johnson']<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Marquette<br><strong>New School: </strong>Bullis School<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>Johnson was the lone underclassmen to start for Marquette High's WIAA Division 1 state-championship team last season. The lanky 6-foot-3 guard showed immense promise with his ability to shoot, guard, get to the basket and finish above the rim. He owns DI offers from Howard and Green Bay, and is moving to Washington, D.C. for his final year of high school basketball and will play for Bullis School, one of the top programs in the D.C. area. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1500914' first='Jaydon' last='Awe']<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Pacelli<br><strong>New School: </strong>Stevens Point<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>Awe actually left Pacelli during the Christmas break last December and began classes at Stevens Point last January. He will not be eligible for the Panthers until early January due to WIAA transfer rules, but the 6-foot-8 athletic forward figures to make a big impact for SPASH once he becomes eligible. Awe played two-plus years at Pacelli and dominated at times with his length, athleticism and ability to score near the rim. He torn his achilles tendon in a game for Pacelli in early December, and sat out with the injury until mid summer when he ran some with Stevens Point and the [program_tooltip program_id='2076433' first='Kevon' last='Looney Power 5'] program. Awe averaged 21.8 points and 16.8 rebounds in six games for Pacelli last season.<br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2140977' first='Reece' last='Jordan Jr'].<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Madison East<br><strong>New School:</strong> Madison La Follette<br><strong>Class 2027</strong><br><br>One of the state's better 2027 prospects, Jordan had a productive freshman campaign for Madison East, averaging 13.2 points and going off for a career-best 30 points in a win over Janesville Parker. When Matt Miota opted to step down as the Purgolders' head coach in the spring and then East hired Ryan Sheehy from out of state to replace Miota, Jordan opted to transfer to another Madison eastside public school, La Follette. Jordan, who performed well for the Davis Brothers Elite club program in the spring/summer, figures to bolster an already talented lineup at La Follette.<br><br><strong>Names:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='2140975' first='Pavle' last='Djilas'], [player_tooltip player_id='2140952' first='Lazar' last='Djilas'], Nico Djilas<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Greendale<br><strong>New School: </strong>Brookfield Academy<br><strong>Class 2027</strong><br><br>The triplets with so much promise move from Greendale of the Woodland West Conference to Brookfield Academy of the Midwest Classic Conference. Lazar (6-7), Pavle (6-6) and Nico (6-0) figure to contend for starting spots at Brookfield Academy, which graduated a large senior class of standout players last spring. Lazar is a skilled wing while Pavle and Nico play in the backcourt. All three have tremendous upside as they continue to add strength and toughness to their games.<br><br><strong>Name:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='2371701' first='Isaiah' last='Yuenger']<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Dodgeland<br><strong>New School:</strong> Beaver Dam<br><strong>Class 2027</strong><br><br>The Beavers of Beaver Dam picked up a talented player in Yuenger, who averaged 20.0 points and 5.8 rebounds and earned first-team all-Trailways East Conference laurels as a freshman at Dodgeland. The 6-foot-4, left-handed wing can score on cuts to the hoop, from the perimeter and off of offensive rebounds. He competed with Beaver Dam and with the Breakaway club team during the summer and seemed to get better game-by-game for both outfits. Yuenger's addition makes Beaver Dam one of the teams to beat in the highly competitive Badger Large Conference. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2140923' first='Gavin' last='Valeri']<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Hortonville<br><strong>New School:</strong> Milwaukee Academy of Science<br><strong>Class 2027</strong><br><br>Valeri played some varsity basketball for Hortonville as a freshman, but the family has moved to the Milwaukee area and he plans to attend Milwaukee Academy of Science in the fall. The 6-foot-3 guard had a productive spring and summer for [program_tooltip program_id='2139004' first='Team' last='Haliburton'] on the club circuit and his addition might help to offset the loss of [player_tooltip player_id='1390441' first='Devin' last='Brown'] for the MAS program.<br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2397759' first='Nathan' last='Hazel']<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Spooner<br><strong>New School:</strong> McDonell Catholic<br><strong>Class 2027</strong><br><br>Hazel averaged 3.9 points and 2.6 rebounds as a freshman at Spooner. He is now enrolled at McDonell Catholic in Chippewa Falls. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2508627' first='Isaac' last='']<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Oconomowoc<br><strong>New School: </strong>Catholic Memorial<br><strong>Class 2027</strong><br><br>Miller, who played on the JV1 squad at Oconomowoc as a freshman, is now at Catholic Memorial. His size and physicality could be a factor for the Crusaders, especially on the glass. <br><br><strong>Name: </strong>Greg Denny<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Green Bay East<br><strong>New School:</strong> Seymour<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>Denny goes from one Bay Conference school (Green Bay East) to another (Seymour) for his final year of high school. The 5-foot-11 guard averaged 11.3 points and 2.5 rebounds for East last winter and made 50 three-point baskets. Denny is one of four transfers into the Seymour program. The others are [player_tooltip player_id='2381606' first='Brett' last='Paltzer'], a 5-foot-11 senior guard who played in seven games for Little Chute last season; [player_tooltip player_id='2838903' first='Carlos' last='Vera-Cantu'], a junior from West De Pere; and [player_tooltip player_id='2615539' first='Jordan' last='Krause'], an incoming freshman from Pulaski.<br><br><strong>Name:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='2399837' first='Chase' last='Lukasavage']<br><strong>Old School:</strong> Menasha<br><strong>New School:</strong> Kimberly<br><strong>Class 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Change sometimes happens with a coaching change and that appears to be the case with Lukasavage, who averaged 4.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists for the varsity squad at Menasha as a freshman. Dylan Wurtz stepped down as the Bluejays' coach last spring in order to take the head coaching position at Laconia, while former University of Wisconsin guard Freddie Owens takes over the coaching duties at Kimberly.<br><br><strong>Name: </strong>Keenan Mulberry<br><strong>Old School: </strong>Menomonee Falls<br><strong>New School: </strong>Germantown<br><strong>Class 2025</strong><br><br>The 6-foot-5 forward is moving within the Greater Metro Conference, going from Menomonee Falls to Germantown. Mulberry had a strong junior campaign at Menomonee Falls, averaging 7.9 points and 4.4 rebounds.<br><br><strong>Additional transfers ...</strong><br><br>Mekhi Pratt (6-1) and brother Michael Pratt (6-1) from Racine St. Catherine's to Racine Lutheran. Both are class of 2027. <br><br>Kingston Caldwell (6-5) from Dominican to Richwoods, Illinois due to a family move. Class of 2025.<br><br>Ashton Winger (6-1) from Deerfield to Lake Mills. Class of 2026. <br><br>[player_tooltip player_id='2615520' first='DJ' last='Cooper'] (5-10) from McDonell Catholic to Regis. Class of 2028.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
