Kasean Pryor is moving on from Louisville basketball. The 6-foot-10 forward is entering the NCAA transfer portal and seeking a waiver for a seventh year of eligibility, according to a report Wednesday from On3's Joe Tipton. Coming off a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee that sidelined him for the final 28 games of the Cardinals' 2024-25 season, Pryor logged 23 appearances off the bench (6.4 minutes per) during Year 2 of the Pat Kelsey era. Pryor's sixth year of eligibility came courtesy of the season he spent in the junior college ranks. Pryor finished the 2025-26 campaign averaging 2.2 points on 41.7% shooting (22.7% from 3-point range) and 1.8 rebounds. The Chicago native's best outing came Dec. 13, when he scored 11 points on 3-for-4 shooting (3 for 3 from beyond the arc) to go along with four rebounds, an assist and a steal across 11 minutes of a win over Memphis at the KFC Yum! Center. That was one of only four games in which Pryor logged 10 or more minutes. He hit his season high of 16 minutes on two occasions: a Nov. 6 win over Jackson State and a Feb. 4 victory over Notre Dame scoring 10 points and grabbing five rebounds in the latter. That game against the Fighting Irish was Pryor's only other double-digit scoring effort. Two days prior, when asked about the forward's limited role to that point, Kelsey said, "Playing time, your role, is developed over time and it's earned. It's up to everybody. Everybody needs to be ready when their name's called.""It looked like he stayed ready tonight," Notre Dame coach Micah Shrewsberry quipped after Pryor's second-half lift powered UofL to a 76-65 win. But, from that point on, the forward tallied more DNPs (four) than shifts longer than five minutes (three). "Dealing with a very serious injury, there's always going to be complications even after healing," Pryor told Cardinal Sports Network play-by-play announcer Paul Rogers after the victory over the Fighting Irish. "The last few weeks, my knee has felt the best it's felt since the injury. Everything's coming back to me now. It was only a matter of time that I got back to playing at this level."Pryor ends his Louisville career averaging 4.5 points on 38.8% shooting (18.2% from 3) and 2.8 rebounds across 10.3 minutes per appearance (30 games, three starts). In the seven games leading up to his knee injury in 2024-25, he was averaging 12 points on 36.8% shooting (15.2% from 3) with 6.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks across 23 minutes per.
