    Former Wisconsin point guard Chucky Hepburn was pictured in Louisville’s team photo on Wednesday.

    Hepburn is set to start at point guard for the Cardinals in 2024-25 after transferring in from Wisconsin this offseason.

    He elected to transfer after three seasons as Wisconsin’s starting point guard. He averaged 9,8 points, 2,8 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.6 steals in over 32 minutes per game during that span on 42% shooting from the field and 36% from three.

    During his last season with the Badgers, Hepburn earned a 2024 All-Big Ten Honorable Mention distinction, a Big Ten All-Defensive Team nod and a Big Ten All-Tournament Team honor.

    Here’s how Hepburn looks in Louisville Cardinals threads in the official team photo for the 2024-25 slate.

    The star point guard wasn’t the only Badger to transfer following the 2023-24 season. sharpshooter Connor Essegian made the move to Nebraska and star wing A.J. Storr elected to sign with the Kansas Jayhawks.

    Hepburn’s shoes will likely be filled by a committee of point guards this season. Veteran point guard Kamari McGee, top 2024 recruit Daniel Freitag and Central Arkansas transfer Camren Hunter figure to lead the rotation.

    The Badgers will open their season on Nov. 4 at the Kohl Center against Holy Cross.
