Kentucky women’s basketball lost its third player to the transfer portal on the first day of its opening as freshman guard Tanah Becker made her intentions to transfer public.
Phoenix Stevens of KSR first reported the news on X, formerly known as Twitter.
While Becker did not play a significant role in the team this season, she showed great potential coming to Kentucky with her experience at the international level.
She made Canada’s U16 national team and competed in highly touted events such as the WNBA Basketball Without Borders Camp, Nike TOC and the BioSteel All-Canadian Game (2023, 2024).
Becker verbally committed to UK under the previous head coach, Kyra Elzy, and remained committed to the program when Kentucky hired Kenny Brooks.
She only saw the court four times this season, playing 16 minutes and scoring seven points, one rebound and one steal.
Becker was the third Cat after Clara Silva and Saniah Tyler to enter the portal.
