Bulldog basketball player looks to transfer

Georgia basketball sophomore Mike Peake has entered the NCAA transfer portal, according to multiple sources.

The 6-foot-8, 220-pound Peake was a late addition to last year’s class, signing in August out of Blue Valley Northwest High School in Overland Park, Kans.

Peake played in 24 of 32 games last season, including the final 12 contests, averaging 9 minutes per outing with 2.3 points and 2 rebounds.

Peake scored a career-high 8 points in the season-opening game against Delaware State and pulled down a season-high 6 rebounds in a season high 23 minutes against South Carolina on Feb. 26.

Peake’s departure brings the Bulldogs’ roster down to 13 scholarship players.

Georgia added Virginia Tech graduate transfer center P.J. Horne last week.

Horne, a 6-6, 225-pounder, averaged 7.6 points and 4.2 rebounds per game last season.
