Will Mizzou basketball team look for a center in the transfer portal?

COLUMBIA, Mo — About two months ago, according to the Chinese zodiac, the Year of the Snake began. Earlier this week, the college basketball transfer portal window began. Could this be the year of the big man for the Missouri Tigers?

Like every other team in the nation, Mizzou needs to browse the portal in search of at least a few ready-made pieces for next season’s rotation. Among MU’s needs, yet again, is a center — one of the more valuable (read: costly) positions to target in the portal.

The better question might be: Could this be the year of the big-time big man for the Missouri Tigers?
