Georgia Tech guard Eric Chatfield Jr. is entering the transfer portal, according to a report. Chatfield was a three-star prospect coming out of high school and played for local powerhouse Pace Academy, where he became a star and a state champion. He appeared in 14 games for the Yellow Jackets this past season, earning a start at Notre Dame and recording his best offensive performance off the bench with 8 points at Stanford.

Why it matters

Chatfield's decision to enter the transfer portal is the latest in a series of player departures from the Georgia Tech men's basketball program. Only four players remain on the roster from the 2025-2026 season, as the Yellow Jackets have lost several key contributors through the transfer portal.

The details

In his limited playing time this past season, Chatfield averaged 2.6 points, 1.4 assists, and 1.0 rebounds per game. He made his first collegiate start against Notre Dame, registering 6 points and a season-high 4 assists while also recording 2 steals. Chatfield's best offensive performance came off the bench, when he scored 8 points on 4-of-8 shooting at Stanford.

• Chatfield entered the transfer portal on April 6, 2026.
• The transfer portal is set to open in less than two days.
