Milan Momcilovic Is Available, and Florida, Kansas, and the Elites Are Ready to Pounce

The transfer portal just got a whole lot more interesting. Milan Momcilovic, arguably the sharpest shooter in college basketball right now, is on the market, and every blue blood program with national championship dreams is circling. This is the kind of player that changes rosters overnight.

The Iowa State sniper just set a program record by hitting 49.3% of his 3-point attempts on at least 125 attempts from deep. That is elite efficiency. Momcilovic averaged 16.9 points per game as a junior and leaves Iowa State ranked third all-time in career 3-pointers made, second in career 3-pointers per game, fifth in consecutive games with a 3-pointer, and first in games with at least five made 3-pointers. In other words, he is one of the greatest shooters in Big 12 history, and he is looking for a new home.

What Makes Him So Valuable

Momcilovic brings three seasons of starting experience and plays at 6-foot-8, which means he is a legitimate forward who can stretch defenses on the perimeter. According to 247Sports National Basketball Analyst Travis Branham, "Milan is arguably the most efficient and prolific shot-maker in all of college basketball. He has a flamethrower for a jumper who can drill shots off the catch and pull." His combination of size, perimeter touch, and offensive polish makes him a plug-and-play starter for any top-25 program. He is the nation's top-ranked uncommitted player following Kansas star Flory Bidunga's pledge to Louisville.

The Schools Making a Run

Florida is one of the more intriguing options. Coach Todd Golden has shown he can maximize his players' potential with an up-tempo offensive system. Elite guard play is part of the expectation in Gainesville, which means Momcilovic would get plenty of open looks from the perimeter after penetration from teammates. He would replace Thomas Haugh, who is expected to be a lottery pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.

Kansas makes sense too. Bill Self has long valued forwards who can stretch defenses within a structured offense. Momcilovic's basketball IQ would make him an instant contributor in Lawrence, plus he gets NCAA Tournament exposure and a chance to win immediately.

North Carolina is also in the hunt. Coach Michael Malone is on a six-year deal and has the financial resources to land a player of Momcilovic's caliber. His track record with sharpshooters at the NBA level could be the difference. Kentucky is another program with cap space and desperately needs perimeter scoring help.

Watch where this lands. Momcilovic will command a top-end deal, and whoever gets him adds instant firepower to their rotation.
