Analysis:

Wheeler is considered one of the top ten players in the portal. Kentucky and Oklahoma State are among his potential landing spots. He blew away Georgia’s single-season record for assists with 193 compared to the previous record of 169. Wheeler was one of two players to start every game last year and was named second-team All-SEC.

Camara started all 25 games that he played in and had almost half of the team’s blocks on the season.

Kier started all 25 games that he played in and was fourth in the SEC in steals.

Fagan hit 59 percent of his attempts.

Brown played in 17 games this season after 31 of 32 in 2019-2020.
