12. Missouri Tigers

Previous Ranking: 12

The Tigers have been one of the more active SEC Basketball teams in the transfer portal across the last month, adding four experienced options headlined by Clemson guard Nick Honor and Northern Iowa forward Noah Carter. Top 50 national recruit Aidan Shaw also recommitted to the Tigers back in early-April, and should be a day one impact player for Missouri and new head coach Dennis Gates.

  • PG Nick Honor
  • SG DeAndre Gholston
  • SF Aidan Shaw
  • PF Noah Carter
  • C Kobe Brown

11. Georgia Bulldogs

Previous Ranking: 14

You could honestly say that there have been few bigger winners this offseason in SEC Basketball than Georgia, who recently had two starters announce their return to Athens next season in Kario Oquendo and Braelen Bridges. New head coach Mike White has also made some waves through the transfer portal as well, landing guards such as Terry Roberts, Justin Hill, Mardez McBride, and Jusaun Holt, as well as impact forwards Matthew-Alexander Moncrieffe and Frank Anselem alongside four-star freshman KyeRon Lindsay.
