Penn State key freshman reserve enters transfer portal

ALTOONA, Pa. -- A third Penn State basketball player has entered the transfer portal, this one a key reserve who showed flashes of great potential during his freshman season.

Evan Mahaffey, a 6-foot-6 swingman, is now in the portal, according to On3.

Mahaffey appeared in 34 games this season for the Nittany Lions, all off the bench. He averaged 2.8 points and 1.7 rebounds, but also showed his potential when he scored a season-high 12 points against Indiana in early January. That was his lone double-digit scoring game of the season.
