Arkansas basketball center Zvonimir Ivisic to enter transfer portal

Arkansas basketball center Zvonimir Ivisic is entering the transfer portal, according to a report from ESPN.

Ivisic is the second Razorback to reportedly enter the portal, joining guard Casmir Chavis. However, Chavis only played in one game for Arkansas. Ivisic was a meaningful contributor throughout most of the season, experiencing a couple of stretches with reduced minutes in the middle and latter stages of the year.

Ivisic shared the reports on his personal social media, confirming his intention to transfer.

The 7-foot-2 Croatian averaged 8.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in 19 minutes per game. He shot 38% from 3-point range and produced a trio of 20-point games on the season. He scored a season-high 27 points in a loss to Alabama on Feb. 8.

Along with Adou Thiero and D.J. Wagner, Ivisic transferred to Arkansas from Kentucky, following John Calipari in his journey to Fayetteville. Ivisic played in 15 games during his freshman season with the Wildcats.

Arkansas' other two bigs this season were Jonas Aidoo and Trevon Brazile, who gobbled up most of the frontcourt minutes throughout March Madness. Aidoo is out of eligibility, but Brazile could return for one final season with Arkansas.
