Indiana guard CJ Gunn joins Kaleb Banks and Payton Sparks as a trio of Hoosiers that entered the transfer portal on Tuesday.
Gunn, a 6-foot-6 guard, played two seasons under coach Mike Woodson. He joined Indiana as a four-star recruit out of Lawrence North High School in Indianapolis, where he scored 23.5 points per game as a senior.
Gunn came off the bench in 49 career games for the Hoosiers. As a freshman in 2022-23, he averaged 2.0 points per game. Gunn was more efficient as a sophomore, shooting 34% from 3-point range and averaging 3.9 points, but he was unable to build a consistent role in the rotation.
In wins over Michigan and Ohio State, Gunn provided a scoring boost off the bench. But his minutes decreased later on in Big Ten play, and he didn't see any game action in four games. Gunn finished his season scoring a career-high 17 points in a blowout loss to Nebraska in the Big Ten Tournament.
With Gunn, Banks and Sparks in the transfer portal, Indiana has six open scholarships heading into the 2024-25 season. Coach Mike Woodson doesn't have any commitments in the high school class of 2024, so he'll likely have to fill those spots with transfers.
