Kentucky Eyes Liberty Guard Brett Decker Jr. in Transfer Portal

Published April 2, 2026 · Updated April 2, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Elizabethtown, Kentucky, native Brett Decker Jr. is a standout guard for the Liberty Flames and is a top name to watch as the transfer portal opens on April 7. His 49.9% shooting from 3‑point range and First‑Team All‑Conference USA honors make him a fit for Mark Pope’s Wildcats.

Brett Decker Jr., a 5th Region Player of the Year at Central Hardin High School, has developed into a prolific scorer for Liberty, averaging 16.9 points per game in the 2025‑26 season. His 47.1% 3‑point accuracy and 49.9% overall field‑goal percentage earned him First‑Team All‑Conference USA honors.

With the transfer portal set to open on April 7, Kentucky is reportedly interested in adding Decker to a roster that has leaned heavily on transfers under Coach Mark Pope. The 6‑ft‑5 guard’s shooting prowess could fill a gap in Pope’s offense and help the Wildcats return to the Sweet 16.
