After a disappointing end to last season, the Nevada men’s basketball team is looking to rebound with a plethora of transfers heading into the start of the 2025-26 season.
Nevada went to the portal and signed nine new players, including six transfers and three freshmen. Coach Steve Alford enters his seventh season, aiming to return the program to the top of the Mountain West Conference and secure an NCAA Tournament berth, a feat he has accomplished twice.
With only seven more weeks left until the season, here’s a look at all the players who took pen to paper and signed with the Pack.
