Impact Godfrey was one of two regular starters who moved to the bench in this game, with Jestin Porter being the other. However, Godfrey let his game do the talking, and he led Clemson in scoring while playing a team-high 29 minutes. Don't be surprised if he returns to the starting lineup against West Virginia on Friday, Nov. 21.

Posts double-double Godfrey racked up 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and two steals across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 83-56 victory over Morehead State.

Impact Godfrey has scored 13 points in each of his last two appearances, but this was the first time he posted a double-double in 2025-26. His versatility is beyond question, as Godfrey has also delivered decent contributions as a passer and on-ball defender. It's still early in the season, but Godfrey seems to be embracing a big workload on both ends of the court for the Tigers.

Returns to Clemson Godfrey will return to Clemson via the transfer portal, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Godfrey began his career with the Tigers, spending two seasons in Death Valley before transferring to Georgia for his junior year. In 2024-2025 with the Bulldogs, Godfrey averaged 6.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.0 assists. He'll have one season of eligibility remaining.

APRIL 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Enters portal again Godfrey entered the NCAA's transfer portal Monday, according to Travis Branham of 247Sports.

Impact Usually, NCAA juniors enter its transfer portal in an attempt to maximize their senior year's upside. Godfrey is no exception, especially considering that him changing teams already worked once. During 2024, he transferred colleges to Georgia from Clemson.

Hits double figures in upset win Godfrey posted 10 points (3-6 FG, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 88-83 victory over Florida.

Impact Godfrey had only scored double-digit points seven previous times this season, but he hit double figures again for the first time since Feb. 8. A perfect 4-for-4 outing from the charity stripe was a big catalyst for that. The forward also collected three boards and one assists, but fouled out for just the second time this season. Regardless, he'll look to help Georgia keep it rolling against Texas on March 1.

FEBRUARY 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet outing in loss Godfrey produced four points (2-5 FG), two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and two steals in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 69-53 loss to Texas A&M.

Impact Godfrey was rather quiet against the Aggies after three straight double-digit scoring outings. The forward committed more turnovers (five) than points (four) and also picked up three fouls. He should continue to start, but his minutes have fluctuated significantly and outings like Tuesday are a big reason why.

FEBRUARY 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Plays just 15 minutes in start Godfrey closed Tuesday's 71-60 victory over South Carolina with seven points (1-2 FG, 5-6 FT) and two rebounds across 15 minutes.

Impact Godfrey has started all 21 games for Georgia but plays just 20.0 minutes-per-game, and that trend of less playing time continued in the win over South Carolina. The forward should continue to start for Georgia, but don't expect an offensive explosion any time soon.

JANUARY 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Another hushed performance Godfrey supplied six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes during Saturday's 72-62 victory over Oklahoma.

Impact In his first season as a starter, Godfrey has been a steady if quiet force for Georgia. He's only hit double-digit points once, and his rebounding has been somewhat inconsistent as well. Still, it doesn't appear his role as a starter is in jeopardy anytime soon as Georgia enters the meat of SEC play.

JANUARY 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Stays quiet vs. GCU Godfrey supplied four points (2-5 FG) and one steal over nine minutes during Saturday's 73-68 win over Grand Canyon.

Impact Godfrey technically started for Georgia, but he only played nine minutes in a narrow victory over Grand Canyon. The forward averages 21.0 minutes, so that was a bit of an outlier. Still, he's a limited part of the Bulldogs' offense and that should remain the case moving forward.

DECEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Almost double-doubles in exhibition Godfrey (ankle) logged eight points (4-5 FG), nine rebounds, three assists and one steal across his 15 minutes during Clemson's exhibition game Wednesday against Newberry.

Impact Godfrey was one field goal and rebound short of logging a double-double. Hunter Tyson may have turned pro, but Clemson's team had little problem immediately replacing him with redshirt senior Jack Clark. The sophomore does stand at least a decent chance to improve from his 2022-23 season though. It indicates Clemson's head coach Brad Brownell liked using Godfrey, who averaged almost 10 minutes across 33 of 34 games the team played.

NOVEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ankle issue Coach Brad Brownell said that Godfrey has battled an ankle injury in fall camp, Jon Blau of The Post and Courier reports.

Impact Godfrey is one of a handful of Clemson players that have been working through injuries in fall camp. It's unclear if it will end up costing him any games to start the season. Godfrey is expected to be primarily a bench player who shouldn't get a ton of minutes when the roster is fully healthy. Clemson plays on exhibition game on Nov. 1 before their regular season starts on Nov. 6 against Winthrop.
