Banks will enter both the 2026 NBA Draft and NCAA's transfer portal, according to Tyler Tachman of the Des Moines Register.
Analysis:Banks announced his decision Wednesday. Worth knowing is that because the senior's collegiate eligibility is used up, him logging at least an additional year requires NCAA permission. "As I explore all options in continuing my basketball career, I am declaring for the NBA Draft, while also entering my name into the transfer portal in the event that a fifth year is granted," he said. "If a fifth year becomes an option, I want to be a Hawkeye!" Considering the last statement, Banks logging an additional year of collegiate eligibility indicates that he will re-enroll at Iowa.
