Summary
- Eian Elmer, a 41% career three-point shooter, joins Wisconsin.
- Elmer provides much-needed size and athleticism at the wing position.
- The transfer significantly shapes Wisconsin's potential starting five.
Wisconsin basketball has landed a significant transfer portal commitment with the signing of Eian Elmer from Miami University. Elmer, who averaged 12.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 1.2 steals last season, is expected to be a primary offensive weapon for the Badgers.
Elmer is particularly renowned for his three-point shooting prowess, connecting on a remarkable 42.9% of his attempts in the 2025-26 season and maintaining a career average of 41% from distance. His ability to score in various ways, including a 58% success rate on two-point attempts, adds versatility to his game.
Standing at 6-foot-7, Elmer brings valuable size and athleticism, addressing Wisconsin's previous lack of a true wing player on the roster. His experience as a starter for most of his time at Miami University further bolsters the Badgers' lineup for the upcoming 2026-27 season.
