Talented Ole Miss forward James Scott is set to be on the move again, with On3’s Pete Nakos learning he is expected to enter the NCAA transfer portal. He will be seeking his fourth program in as many years.

Scott spent the last year with the Rebels, where he started in 27 games. He appeared in 35 games total, but despite opening the night in the lineup most nights, he logged only 17.9 minutes per contest.

James Scott finished the year averaging 4.6 rebounds and 3.9 points per game. He also chipped in 1.3 blocks per contest, proving to be an effective rim protector.

Prior to joining Ole Miss, Scott suited up for Louisville. He played there from 2024-25, where he became a major contributor.

While with the Cardinals, James Scott started 31 of 35 games he appeared in. He logged 23.6 minutes per contest and averaged 7.1 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists per contest.

His previous stint had come at Charleston, where he started four games as a freshman in 35 appearances. He notched 5.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game for the Cougars.

On3 will have more on this developing story shortly.
