Iowa State Star Audi Crooks Enters Transfer Portal
- On Thursday, Iowa State center Audi Crooks announced her intention to enter the transfer portal on Instagram. The junior forward averaged 25.8 points per game this season, ranking second nationally in scoring.
- Her departure follows a disappointing season where Iowa State failed to advance past the NCAA Tournament's first round for the third consecutive year. Crooks becomes the 10th Cyclone to leave the roster this spring.
- Recognized as an Associated Press All-American second-team selection, the 6-foot-3 junior led the Big 12 in scoring for two consecutive years while shooting 64.9% from the floor. She averaged 7.7 rebounds per game.
- As one of the highest-profile players available in the portal, Crooks will likely attract interest from numerous marquee programs. Her offensive efficiency and post-scoring ability make her an immediate impact candidate for any roster.
- Although eligible to declare for the 2026 WNBA Draft after turning 22 in December, Crooks chose to continue her collegiate career. She retains one year of eligibility to pursue a championship at a new school.
