Owen Freeman, the 2024 Big Ten Freshman of the Year at Iowa, is transferring to Creighton.
The 6-foot-10-inch forward averaged 16.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks per game as a sophomore with the Hawkeyes this past season. He was limited to 19 games due to a finger injury.
Freeman was rated as the top center in the transfer portal. The 20-year-old entered the portal one day after head coach Fran McCaffery was dismissed.
“With the recent coaching change, my family and I have decided it would be in my best interests to enter the transfer portal,” Freeman said in a statement on March 15.
Freeman will move to the Big East, joining a successful Creighton program. The Bluejays are coming off a 25-11 campaign, which included an upset of Louisville in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Creighton lost to top-seeded Auburn in the round of 32.
