Miami's Isaiah Wong Plans to Transfer If NIL Compensation Demands Aren't Met
Isaiah Wong's future at the University of Miami is uncertain due to compensation from his name, image and likeness deal.
Speaking to ESPN's Jeff Borzello and Jonathan Givony, Wong's NIL agent, Adam Papas, said Wong will enter the transfer portal if his NIL compensation isn't increased.
"If Isaiah and his family don't feel that the NIL number meets their expectations they will be entering the transfer portal tomorrow, while maintaining his eligibility in the NBA draft and going through the draft process," Papas said.
Papas pointed to the deals incoming Miami players are getting as the basis of his argument.
"Isaiah would like to stay at Miami," Papas explained. "He had a great season leading his team to the Elite Eight. He has seen what incoming Miami Hurricane basketball players are getting in NIL and would like his NIL to reflect that he was a team leader of an Elite Eight team."
