Memphis guard Dug McDaniel plans to enter the Transfer Portal, On3s Joe Tipton reports. McDaniel was one of a plethora of players to be granted an injunction against the NCAA to play the 2026-27 college basketball season,accordingto court documents.McDaniel is seeking his fourth program in five seasons. Across his four-year career (60 games at Michigan, 32 games at Kansas State, 32 games at Memphis), McDaniel boasts career averages of 12.3 points, 4.4 assists, and 3.3 rebounds.Although the value of missed NIL opportunities could potentially be quantified, the lost opportunity to play NCAA Division I basketball for a fifth season results in a loss of opportunity for exposure and building his personal brand, the court order stated. NCAA eligibility is necessarily limited in duration. The opportunity to compete as a student-athlete, develop athletically, and pursue compensation through name, image, and likeness activities exists only during a finite period and cannot be recreated once a season has concluded.Plaintiffs have demonstrated that, absent injunctive relief, they will be unable to compete in the upcoming season and enter the NCAA Transfer Portal and pursue opportunities to compete during an additional season, should such opportunities become available. Once those deadlines pass and roster positions are filled, the lost opportunity cannot be restored through a later judgment or adequately compensated by monetary damage.Dug McDaniel was among many plaintiffs granted injunction to play next seasonOther plaintiffs named in the suit included Jalen Washington,Brody Robinson, Jack Browder, Olamide Ajiboye, Daniel Egbuniwe, Cameron Fens, Chendall Weaver,Jason Edwards, Zachary Davis, Tarence Guinyard,A.J.
