A  standout 6-foot-2, 195-pound power forward from Wisconsin, has committed to play basketball for Louisville, according to a source from 247Sports. Hepburn, hailing from Omaha, Nebraska, garnered All-Big Ten Honorable Mention and Defensive Team honors in the previous season, averaging 9.2 points, 3.9 assists, and 3.3 rebounds per game.

Following a visit to Louisville this week, Hepburn made his decision to join the Cardinals. His commitment marks the eighth addition to Louisville’s roster this offseason under Coach Pat Kelsey’s leadership. Hepburn joins a group of transfers, including Koren Johnson, Reyne Smith, Terrence Edwards, J’Vonne Hadley, Aly Khalifa, Aboubacare Traore, and James Scott, as part of the team’s revamped lineup for the upcoming season.

Ranked as a four-star transfer in 247Sports’ college basketball portal rankings, Hepburn still has one year of eligibility remaining. Notably, the NCAA has introduced new rules for this offseason, allowing transfers to be immediately eligible for the 2024-25 season without needing a waiver, which will significantly impact the transfer market .
