Syracuse basketball fans hoped for five-star transfer Malik Mack to join the team, but he has committed to Georgetown, a former Big East rival.

By the Numbers
  • Mack averaged 17.2 points, 4.8 assists, and 4.0 rebounds per game at Harvard during the 2023-24 season.
  • Mack shot 41.0% from the field, 34.1% from three-point range, and 81.3% from the free-throw line.
Yes, But

The Syracuse coaching staff may have reached out to Mack, but he ultimately chose Georgetown for his college career.

State of Play
  • Syracuse is looking to fill the lead guard position ahead of the 2024-25 season.
  • The Orange have secured commitments from two four-star transfer prospects, Eddie Lampkin Jr. and Jyáre Davis.
  • Syracuse is also pursuing Mount St. Mary's senior guard Dakota Leffew.
What's Next

The 'Cuse will continue to search for a lead guard and work on strengthening the roster for upcoming seasons.

Bottom Line
