Wisconsin Transfer A.J. Storr Commits to Kansas Out of Transfer Portal, per Report
Wisconsin star sophomore AJ Storr has committed to Kansas in the transfer portal, according to a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Storr picked Kansas over Illinois, Texas and Arkansas.
The Badgers wing, who was considered one of the top players in the transfer portal, averaged 16.8 points and 3.9 rebounds per game last season on 43.4% shooting from the floor, which included a 32.0% mark from three.
Kansas will be Storr’s third team in his three seasons of college basketball. Storr began his career at St. John’s, but departed for the transfer portal after Rick Pitino was hired as the new coach of the Red Storm.
Now, after a one-year stint in Madison, where he was the best player on a No. 5-seeded NCAA tournament team en route to a second-team All-Big Ten selection, will look to help revitalize a Kansas squad that went 23-11 and was eliminated in the round of 32 against Gonzaga last month.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Bates County Circuit Court judge Friday sentenced a Linn County, Kansas, man in connection with the December 2025 death of Airen Andula, 13.
Damon Leonard, 47, was sentenced to four years in prison for abandonment of a corpse, according to court records.
He pleaded guilty to the charge of abandoning a corpse on May 22.
Andula disappeared from his Pleasanton, Kansas, home on Dec. 21, 2025. A day later, law enforcement found the boy’s body in a ravine in Bates County, Missouri. He had died from multiple dog bite injuries.
Police were led to the boy’s body after a phone call from Leonard.
Court documents said Leonard “admitted that he transported the deceased child from Kansas to Missouri and left the body in the bottom of the creek” before he returned home.
KSHB 41 reporter Fernanda Silva spoke with Andula’s family earlier this week — after the guilty plea and ahead of Friday’s sentencing.
His family shared that the guilty plea brought a small sense of justice, but it didn’t do much to ease the pain of their loss.

“We’re missing our kid every day of our lives,” the boy’s father Charles Andula told Silva.
Leonard received credit for time served of 158 days in his sentence, per court records.
