Missouri men’s basketball guard Kaleb Brown is on the move again, returning to the transfer portal for the second time in as many years.  This decision followed a junior campaign where he missed all but two games due to a shin injury.

As the sixth Tiger from the 2023-2024 roster to enter the portal, Brown is looking for a fresh start.  With at least one year of eligibility remaining, and potentially a second if he applies for a medical hardship waiver, the 6-foot-7 guard is an attractive prospect for other schools.

Brown’s decision to remain at Missouri last year earned him praise from Coach Dennis Gates, who called him the team’s most improved player, while commending his maturity in facing adversity and sticking with the program.

The Tigers are turning the page on a winless SEC season from 2023-2024 season, with three former players already finding new homes.  Meanwhile, guard John Tonje and forward Jesus Carralero-Martin remain in the transfer portal, exploring her options.

Kaleb Brown is the brother of former Mizzou Tiger and current Los Angeles Clippers forward Kobe Brown, with Kaleb now looking for a new and fresh chapter in his college career.
