Indiana basketball forward Malik Reneau enters transfer portal

Indiana basketball power forward Malik Reneau has entered the transfer portal, per Jeff Goodman.

With Indiana moving on from the Mike Woodson era, it was widely expected that many Indiana basketball players would be entering the transfer portal to at least test the waters. The Hoosiers recently announced the hiring of Darien DaVries as the next head coach of program.

Out the names that will enter the portal from Indiana basketball, Malik Reneau will likely be the biggest name. He has been a backbone for the program the last three seasons.

During his time for Indiana basketball, Reneau appeared in 94 games averaging 13.3 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. He started in 55 of those games and received All-Big Ten Honorable Mention the last two seasons.

Reneau played high school basketball at Montverde Academy in Florida with former Indiana basketball guard Jalen Hood-Schifino. Reneau originally committed to Florida before decommitting and joining the Indiana basketball program.

It is worth noting that if a player does enter the portal, there is still a possibility they can return. Reneau would be a player that DeVries would easily welcome back.

Reneau joins Gabe Cupps as the only Hoosiers in the transfer portal so far.
