Christian Bliss - Commits to Stanford Bliss will transfer to Stanford, per Joe Tipton of On3.com.

Impact Bliss was the CUSA Freshman of the Year at Delaware in 2025-26, averaging 16.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.8 steals, shooting 39.2 percent from three-point range for good measure. The 6-foot-4 guard from Queens, New York will now get his shot at high major basketball, where his dynamic scoring and facilitation ability should help him earn a role with the Cardinal right away -- potentially as their starting point guard.

Ebuka Okorie - Staying in NBA Draft Okorie is staying in the NBA Draft, according to Jeff Borzello of ESPN.

Impact Okorie's decision to enter the draft is a major blow for Stanford, as he was one of the top scorers in college basketball and a focal point of the offense. The Stanford guard is coming off a strong freshman campaign in which he averaged 23.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.6 assists over 31 starts. Okorie's departure leaves a significant scoring void and will force the Cardinal to retool their backcourt for next season.

Austin Maurer - Lands at Stanford Maurer will transfer to Stanford, per PortalUpdates.

Impact Maurer spent his freshman year at Grand Canyon before transferring to Seattle as a sophomore. He got way more involved in the Emerald City, averaging 7.2 points and 4.6 rebounds across 18 minutes per game. The seven-footer will have two seasons of eligibility remaining in Palo Alto.

Anthony Batson Jr. - Won't return for Crown Baston (undisclosed) will remain out for Stanford's participation in the College Basketball Crown, the program announced.

Impact Baston didn't play at all in 2025-26, so it makes sense that he'll continue to sit out Stanford's postseason play. The guard will look to contribute next season in his redshirt freshman year.

Tallis Toure - Won't play in Crown Toure isn't part of Stanford's travel roster for the College Basketball Crown.

Impact Toure appeared in Stanford's first two games of the season but didn't take the floor the rest of the way. He dealt with a lower body injury during the campaign. It's unclear if he's simply opted out of the Crown or if he's still hampered by the injury.
