Transfers Already Making Impacts For Their New Teams

Antonio Barton- Tennessee PG
Barton, the former Memphis guard, is knocking down shots for the Volunteers. Through three games, he is 7 of 12 from the arc, averaging 12 points per game. Barton is the only true point guard for the Volunteers, so he will be needed later in the year. The Volunteers are 2-1 so far, and Barton will become a household name for the Volunteers.

DeAndre Kane- Iowa State PG
Kane is surprisingly efficient for the Cyclones, shooting 50 percent or over from the field in all three games, leading the 'Clones to a 3-0 record and a surprising victory over Michigan. Kane has a lot of help from Naz Long and Melvin Ejim, but Kane is already a leader for Iowa State in his first year with the program.

Joesph Young- Oregon G
The former Houston guard Young is legit. He is fourth in the nation in scoring with 30 points per game, and he is shooting 60 percent from the field. He got off to a great start with 24 points against a strong Georgetown team, and he is helping another transfer, Mike Moser from UNLV, hold down the fort while waiting for Dominic Artis to return. Young has the chance to compete for the Pac-12 POY and the scoring title.

Joshua Smith- Georgetown C
Josh Smith is a big boy. Smith left UCLA for a depleted Georgetown team that he is making a huge impact for. He dropped 25 on a top 20 Oregon team. The only question surrounding him is if he can score on a consistent basis for the Hoyas.
