For the second time this week, Vermont basketball has secured a key frontcourt piece for its future via the transfer portal.
Buffalo freshman forward Ben Michaels, who entered the portal last month, has committed to make the move to Vermont, the England native announced on his Instagram page on Friday.
Tuesday, Vermont landed Gus Yalden, a 6-foot-9 transfer forward from Seton Hall.
The 6-foot-8, 210-pound Michaels appeared in 29 games this winter, making 15 starts for the Bulls. He averaged 8.1 points and 4.0 rebounds in 22.4 minutes per game to earn Mid-American Conference (MAC) all-freshman team honors.
Michaels scored a career-high 15 points in a loss to Ohio and tallied double figures in 10 other games for Buffalo, which went 9-22.
