Hitting transfer portal Dynes has entered the transfer portal, according to Grant Grubbs of On3.com.

Impact Dynes didn't have a big role with USC during the 2025-26 season, averaging 2.9 points and 2.3 rebounds in a career-low 12.0 minutes per game across 30 appearances (six starts). Dynes will be playing for a third different program in the last three seasons once he signs with a new team.

Seven boards off the bench Dynes accumulated two points (1-2 FG, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and four blocks across 15 minutes during Sunday's 77-75 victory over Penn State.

Impact Dynes now has seven rebounds off the bench for the second straight game. His minutes, and consequently his production, have fluctuated significantly this season, but the past two games he's been a force on the glass, with the aforementioned 14 total rebounds as well as seven blocks. The 7-foot-5 center is a massive presence off the bench, and if he can give USC a handful of solid minutes around the rim off the bench each game, that will be crucial in the Trojans' push for an NCAA Tournament bid.

Productive in third start Dynes racked up 10 points (5-6 FG), eight rebounds and one block over 21 minutes during Tuesday's 88-71 win over Maryland.

Impact Dynes notched just his third start of the season Tuesday as the Trojans rolled over Maryland, and he scored an efficient 10 points on 5-of-6 shooting. His eight rebounds were also a season-high -- Dynes could be making a push for more playing time as the USC enters the meat of Big Ten play.

Leading scorer as Trojans win Dynes notched 16 points (8-10 FG), five rebounds, two assists and four blocks in 22 minutes during Sunday's 102-63 win over California-Santa Cruz.

Impact Dynes had hardly been involved prior to Sunday against UC-Santa Cruz, averaging just 2.2 points across 8.1 minutes. The junior got his first career start in a USC uniform, however, and played very well. He was highly efficient from the field (80 percent) and was valuable as a defender with four swatted shots. It was only UC-Santa Cruz, but Dynes should continue to see his role increase if he can stack performances like this.

Stands out defensively Dynes stood out defensively during USC's team practice Friday, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Rothstein praised two USC players' defense, one including Dynes. The center's 2024-25 season indicates that he made great use of his 7-foot-5 height, backed up with 3.1 blocks per game. Even though Dynes must compete against Ezra Ausar and Jacob Cofie for center minutes, the Youngstown State transfer is making at least an adequate case that he is too good a big man to ride on USC's bench.
