Just one day after Andrew Rohde became Wisconsin’s first addition in the transfer portal, Greg Gard and his staff landed another commitment. Austin Rapp, a 6-foot-10 native of Melbourne, Australia and the University of Portland Pilots, announced on social media Friday that he will be joining Wisconsin.
Rapp is coming off his freshman season at the University of Portland where he was named West Coast Conference Freshman of the Year. He averaged 13.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists, showcasing untapped potential offensively. Defensively, Rapp recorded 1.5 blocks per game.
With three years to develop in Madison, Rapp’s offensive potential is untapped.
