In another crushing blow, Wisconsin has now lost Chucky Hepburn to the transfer portal. With seven Badgers now in the portal and some already with new homes, the cupboard is looking a little bare for Greg Gard.
NEWS: Wisconsin guard Chucky Hepburn has entered the transfer portal, source told ESPN. Averaged 9.2 points and 3.9 assists this past season, averaged 12.2 points and shot 40.5% from 3-point range in 2022-23. Started 103 games over the past three seasons for Greg Gard.

Hepburn had a solid 2023 season averaging nine points and four assists per game. He joins AJ Storr as the second starter to leave the program through the portal. A former teammate of potential transfer Frankie Fidler, Hepburn's departure from Madison kills a lot of momentum on that front.
Wisconsin has yet to bring in a transfer of their own, and while there is still plenty of time, a little pressure has begun to set in.
