Georgetown Hoops Lose Key Player: KJ Lewis Transferring

Georgetowns leading scorer, KJ Lewis, is leaving the team for the transfer portal, just eleven days after the season ended. Lewis, a junior guard, averaged 14.9 points, 5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game, earning all-Big East third team honors. He transferred to Georgetown last year from Arizona, where he increased his scoring from 6.1 to 10.8 points per game.

Despite fan disappointment, Lewis was a two-way force who brought Georgetown spirit. The team still managed to upset higher seeds like DePaul and Villanova in the Big East tournament without him. However, the trend of players entering the transfer portal is on the rise, making it challenging for students to stay connected to a rotating roster.

With the portal opening on April 7th, coach Ed Cooley faces pressure to replace Lewiss production, especially with uncertainty around senior center Vince Iwuchukwus eligibility. Despite the challenges, believers in Cooleys track record with transfers and the fast-paced nature of modern college basketball remain optimistic.

Georgetowns mens basketball team has made significant moves in the transfer portal, securing two guards for the 2026-27 season. Head coach Ed Cooley has landed junior point guard Jaland Lowe from Kentucky and redshirt sophomore Elmarko Jackson from Kansas. Lowe, a six-foot-one Missouri City native, had a standout season at Pittsburgh but struggled with injuries at Kentucky. Jackson, a six-foot-three former McDonalds All-American, brings defensive prowess from Kansas. However, the team still needs to fill a frontcourt gap after four-star recruit Alex Constanza reentered the portal.

Georgetown mens basketball faces a challenging rebuild after losing ten players in the transfer portal, leaving coach Ed Cooley with only seven scholarship players for next season. While the backcourt is bolstered by new guards Jaland Lowe and Elmarko Jackson, the frontcourt is thin, with key departures like Malik Mack, KJ Lewis, Isaiah Abraham, and Julius Halaifonua. Fans are divided, excited about the new guards but worried about the lack of big men. Caleb Williams, Kayvaun Mulready, Gabe Landeira, and Seal Diouf remain, but the team needs to prioritize landing frontcourt talent to compete in the Big East.
