Added to transfer portal Clemence was added to the NCAA's transfer portal Wednesday, VerbalCommits.com reports.
Impact Clemence was part of Kansas' basketball program from mid-2021 to March 2023. Despite participating in many games, he did not play much during them. The big man averaged 5.2 minutes while Kansas had him. So now, Clemence wants to enroll in a school whose team has better opportunities.

Sees one field-goal try in return Clemence registered two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound across four minutes during Saturday's 75-59 loss to Texas.
Impact Clemence unsurprisingly saw extremely minimal usage after he missed each of the previous eight contests due to a combination of knee issues, illness and coach's decisions. The 6-foot-10 sophomore did not have much of a role while coming off the bench prior to this extended absence, as he averaged just 1.4 points and 1.4 rebounds while playing 5.8 minutes per game across 18 appearances. Barring significant injuries to Kansas' starting big men, it's highly likely Clemence will be a nonfactor during the Jayhawks' upcoming postseason.

Unavailable Tuesday Clemence isn't feeling well and is unavailable for Tuesday's game against Texas Tech, Gary Bedore of The Kansas City Star reports.
Impact Clemence hasn't seen the court as a coach's decision since Jan. 31 versus Kansas State, so his absence is unlikely to affect coach Bill Self's rotation. The sophomore center will have a few days to get healthy ahead of Saturday's matchup at Texas, which is the final game of the regular season.

Impact Clemence landed awkwardly after going for a rebound attempt and immediately checked out of the game and was being attended to by a trainer. It appears the 6-10 sophomore will not return to Saturday's game and more clarity on his should come to surface following the conclusion of Saturday's action.

Impact After returning to practice at full speed earlier in the week, it now appears that Clemence could be available in some capacity Saturday. His toe injury has sidelined him for all but one game since the calendar flipped to January, so he could be on a minutes restriction as he rounds back into form.
