One of Wisconsin basketball's top targets in the class of 2025, power forward E.J. Walker, plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal, according to On3's Joe Tipton.

The Badgers were one of Walker's top choices during last year's recruiting cycle. After committing to South Carolina instead, he is now set to transfer after one year with the program.

The Erlanger, Kentucky, native appeared in 22 games for the Gamecocks in 2025-26, starting six. He averaged 16 minutes, 2.9 points and 2.7 rebounds, while shooting 43% from the floor and 24% from 3. His best game of the season came in an overtime loss to Texas: eight points, three rebounds and one steal, with a perfect 4-of-4 shooting rate from the floor.

Wisconsin is set for another busy transfer portal season. While the program's roster and depth chart needs won't be made clear until upperclassmen Nolan Winter and John Blackwell reveal their plans, Walker's name is one to bookmark.
