Bobby Hurley and Arizona State landed a big-time commitment out of the transfer portal over the weekend, with Oakland forward Allen Mukeba pledging to the Sun Devils on Sunday night.

Listed at 6-foot-6, 247 pounds, Mukeba is native to Charleroi, Belgium, and spent just one season with the Grizzlies. Mukeba started all 33 games for Oakland this past season and logged career-best marks in points (14.6), rebounds (7.5), and assists (2.3).

He also ranked 32nd nationally by shooting 56.9% from the field and led the Grizzlies to a semifinal appearance in the Horizon League Tournament.

The senior forward ended up in double figures in 24 games this season and had 18 or more points in 11 games, including six of his final eight games.

He’ll have one more season of eligibility remaining with the Sun Devils and helps bolster a roster that has lost several key pieces, including former five-star Jayden Quaintance.

Arizona State finished the 2024-25 season with a 13-20 overall record and was 4-16 in the Big 12, placing them 15th in the league’s final standings.
