Ta'Niya Latson Enters WCBB Transfer Portal After Leading D-I Players in Scoring at FSU

The leading scorer in women's college basketball during the 2024-25 season is hitting the transfer portal.

Per ESPN's Andrea Adelson, Florida State's Ta'Niya Latson plans to enter the transfer portal but is "keeping her options open." Latson put up 25.2 points per game this season.

Latson spent the first three seasons of her career with the Seminoles, averaging more than 20 points per game each year.

According to Adelson, Florida State "had been preparing for" the reality of Latson transferring over the past few months when her NIL potential began to increase. The Seminoles also could be heading toward a rebuild with players like Makayla Timpson and O'Mariah Gordon set to graduate this year.

Behind Latson's outstanding year, Florida State went 24-9, reaching the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The Seminoles lost to No. 3-seeded LSU in the Round of 32. Latson had 30 points in the 101-71 loss.

Latson committed to Florida State under now-retired head coach Sue Semrau in 2021, but kept her commitment to the Seminoles when Brooke Wyckoff was promoted to head coach.

Her time at Florida State saw her win ACC Rookie of the Year in 2023 and set the single-season Florida State scoring record this year with 731 points.

While Latson will now enter the portal, there's a chance she could return to Tallahassee for her senior season. Of course, nearly every team in the country will be trying to add Latson to their roster, so the Seminoles will likely have to be willing to go deep into their NIL budget for her.
