April 23, 2023
The South Carolina men’s basketball team added an important piece through the transfer portal Thursday Former Wofford forward B.J. Mack announced on social media that he has committed to Lamont Paris’ Gamecocks, giving the Gamecocks a much-needed boost in the frontcourt.
The top target for the Gamecocks this offseason, Mack rounds out an experienced incoming transfer class that also includes former Vanderbilt forward Myles Stute, Minnesota guard Ta’Lon Cooper and The Citadel forward Stephen Clark. Mack is the third commitment of the day for Paris’ team. Finland’s Morris Ugusuk and Okku Federiko announced their choices Thursday morning from Omnia Academy. Ugusuk, like Mack, is a Class of 2023 recruit who will join the team this offseason while Federiko is the first commit for the Class of 2024.
Originally from Charlotte, Mack took an official visit to the Gamecocks last weekend and chose the Gamecocks over Iowa, Alabama, LSU, and Arkansas. He told The State before his visit to Columbia that he liked the vision Paris and his staff had for him at South Carolina and also liked the idea of playing close to home. Mack projects to start for the Gamecocks right away.
