Jamir Watkins transferring: 5 possible landing spots
Seton Hall Pirates
Watkins played high school basketball a little over an hour away from South Orange and was recruited by Seton Hall at the time. While that was a different regime under Kevin Willard, the Pirates seem to be building something under Shaheen Holloway which could make a return back home intriguing for Watkins. Seton Hall just missed the NCAA Tournament in a 25-win season in 2023-24 but capped the year off with an NIT title. Some major pieces will be leaving though, including guard Al-Amir Dawes, who is out of eligibility, while Dylan Addae-Wusu, Dre Davis and leading scorer Kadary Richmond are all transferring. Holloway has already added two players through the portal with a similar skill set to Watkins, Scotty Middleton and Prince Aligbe, but Watkins is a superior veteran talent who can add needed depth for the Pirates on the wing.
