Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images Florida State leading scorer Jamir Watkins entered the transfer portal on Wednesday with a 'do not contact' tag, multiple outlets reported.
A 6-foot-7 forward, Watkins led the Seminoles in scoring at 18.4 points per game. He also recorded 5.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 32 starts for Florida State last season, his second in Tallahassee. He began his career at VCU (2020-21, 2022-23), missing the 2021-22 season with a knee injury. He has one year of eligibility remaining.
Watkins, the ACC's fourth-leading scorer in 2024-25, earned All-ACC Second Team honors.
Watkins becomes the 10th Florida State player to hit the portal in the aftermath of the retirement of Leonard Hamilton. The Seminoles named Luke Loucks as his replacement.
Watkins is averaging 12.9 points and 5.1 rebounds in 126 career games (84 starts) for the Rams and Seminoles.
