Kansas State freshman guard transfer Dai Dai Ames is reportedly taking an official visit to UVA men's basketball on Monday.
UVA's heightened activity in the transfer portal continues. Dai Dai Ames , a freshman guard transfer from Kansas State, is reportedly taking an official visit to Virginia starting Monday, as reported by Josh Burton of Locker Room Access on Monday afternoon.A 6'1" guard from Chicago, Illinois, Ames appeared in 31 games as a true freshman this season at Kansas State, including 16 starts. In a little over 20 minutes played per game, Ames averaged 5.2 points and 2.
In what was ultimately his final game as a Wildcat, Ames scored a season-high 16 points and dished out five assists against Iowa in the NIT. He made six of his eight field goal attempts and knocked down four of his five threes. Though his season-long numbers weren't gaudy due to limited playing time as a true freshman, his strong play late in the season when his minutes increased suggests a very bright future. Ames is in the transfer portal with three years of eligibility remaining.
Ames was a consensus four-star prospect coming out of high school and was a top 20 point guard in the class of 2023 and the No. 2 overall recruit in the state of Illinois. As a senior at Kenwood Academy High School in Chicago, Ames averaged 21.4 points, 4.3 assists, and 2.4 steals per game and was named a 2023 Jordan Brand Classic All-American.
