Two K-State big men are entering the transfer portal after one season with Wildcats.

Kansas State’s two tallest basketball players have to decided to transfer away from the Wildcats after spending just one season in Manhattan.

Baye Fall, a 6-foot-11 sophomore center who began his college career at Arkansas, has entered the transfer portal. He averaged 2.5 points and 1.5 rebounds while playing in four games for K-State last season.

Ugonna Onyenso, a 7-foot center who started out at Kentucky, also plans to transfer and play elsewhere next season, a source confirmed Monday morning.

Onyenso arrived at K-State with high expectations, but he was never able to live up to them in a purple uniform. He averaged 2.8 points and 2.4 rebounds last season while playing in 24 games, mostly as a reserve. The junior made two starts and finished the year with 21 blocks.

Onyenso’s mediocre numbers and limited playing time made him a prime transfer candidate as head coach Jerome Tang looks to rebuild the K-State roster. Fall was also an expected departure, though it took longer than anticipated for both of them to begin looking elsewhere.

Onyenso is originally from Owerri, Nigeria. During his first two years of college basketball, he played in 40 games for John Calipari at Kentucky.

Fall is from Dakar, Senegal.

They will both now look to finish out their college basketball careers strong at new schools.

These are the third and fourth basketball players that the Wildcats have lost to the transfer portal in the past month. Reserve wing Macaleab Rich and starting guard Brendan Hausen are the others.
