Wisconsin guard Chucky Hepburn transferred to Louisville, the point guard announced on Thursday. Hepburn played 103 games (all starts) in three seasons with the Badgers and averaged 9.2 points per game in 2023-24. Hepburn was regarded as one of the top defensive players in the Big Ten and also averaged 3.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.1 steals per game last season. New Louisville head coach Pat Kelsey has reeled in eight players from the transfer portal, which included Hepburn and Long Beach State forward Aboubacar Traore, who announced he was headed to the Cardinals via Instagram on Thursday. The All-Big West pick as a senior last season became one of three players in program history with 1,000 points, 500 rebounds and 300 assists. --Field Level Media
