Jackson Shelstad
Shelstad is ranked No. 13 overall among transfers and the third-best point guard in the transfer portal, per On3. Shelstad has been one of the productive high-major scorers over the last three seasons despite a hand injury limiting him to 12 games this past season. The consensus 2023 No. 23 recruit averages 13.6 points, 3.0 assists, and 2.9 rebounds over 79 career games. He also has drained 1.9 threes while compiling shooting splits of 43.9/35.2/84.4.
Despite seeing limited time this past season, Shelstad showed improvement as a playmaker and disruptive defender. He also demonstrated a high-volume three-point ability with 2.8 treys on 8.8 attempts.
Shelstad is similar to Duck guard Peyton Pritchard, excelling in ball screens and shot creation. Additionally, he has strong hands, which enable him to come up with steals. He also has a visit to Arizona planned on April 14.
Tyrone Riley IV to Visit Cardinals
Tyrone Riley IV is expected to visit Louisville on Sunday, according to William McDermott of Cardinals Sports. Riley showed an improvement as a scorer in his second season at San Francisco, increasing his scoring production from 9.6 to 12.2 points a game. His biggest jump was as a 3-point shooter, where he made 1.4 treys at 36.8%, up from 32% as a freshman.
Riley, a top-75-rated transfer, has developed into a high-major prospect with legitimate NBA upside. The 6-6 lefty wing is a rangy, athletic defender who is at his best when getting to the basket and transition. He is a good cutter and can score off the move. A-plus defender, the All-WCC selection also possesses a high motor and has demonstrated to be a solid rebounder. Kentucky and Indiana are also expected to get involved in his recruitment.
