Former Creighton forward Arthur Kaluma has withdrawn from the NBA Draft and will keep his name in the transfer portal, his agent Todd Ramasar told ZAGSBLOG.com. Kaluma entered the portal earlier this month.
Kaluma, the 6-foot-7, 225-pound forward from Glendale (AZ), will be a hot commodity as teams piece together their final 2023-24 rosters. He currently ranks as Evan Miya’s No. 17 overall transfer and the No. 3 transfer still available.
At Creighton last season as a sophomore, Kaluma averaged 11.8 points and 6.0 rebounds per game. He also shot 42.3% from the field and 31.1% from 3-point range.
Kaluma is reportedly drawing interest from John Calipari and the Kentucky Wildcats. With Oscar Tshiebwe staying in the NBA Draft, Kentucky is in need of veteran leadership.
