The Georgia Bulldogs are looking to make a second straight NCAA Tournament appearance in 2025-2026. However, Georgia basketball will have to try to do it with almost an entirely new team.
The Bulldogs have three players in the transfer portal as of March 31. Georgia is expected to lose starting point guard Silas Demary Jr., forward RJ Godrey and guard De’Shayne Montgomery this offseason. This trio has all entered the transfer portal. Players that enter the portal can return to Georgia, but generally most players end up transferring ouGeorgia is also projected to lose starting center Asa Newell to the 2025 NBA draft. Newell is a projected lottery pick and was UGA’s leading scorer and rebounder last season.
Georgia senior guards Tyrin Lawrence and Dakota Leffew are both out of eligibility. This means that six of Georgia’s seven leading scorers from 2024-2025 are not expected to return with the lone exception being guard Blue Cain (9.6 points per game), who is yet to announce his future.
Georgia and head coach Mike White has several targets in the portal. It is clear that Georgia will have a ton of playing time to offer to incoming transfGeorgia’s starting point guard Silas Demary Jr. entered the transfer portal and the 2025 NBA draft. Demary was UGA’s second-leading scorer (13.5 points per game) in 2024-2025. Demary was Georgia’s team leader in assists (3.1) and steals (1.7) per game. He has not committed to a new school.RJ Godfrey, a Clemson transfer, averaged 6.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 19.5 minutes per game in his lone season at Georgia. Godfrey has excellent size, but is not a great shooter. He did not play over 20 minutes in any of Georgia’s games this March.De’Shayne Montgomery was academically ineligible for a good chunk of the season. The sophomore averaged 6.5 points, 2.1 rebounds and 15.7 minutes per game. The Gonzaga game was the only time he played since Georgia’s Feb. 15 loss to Missouri, so his decision to enter the transfer portal does not come as much of a surprise.ers.t.
