Peyton Marshall Transfers from Missouri to Georgia Tech

Georgia Tech basketball has secured a commitment from Missouri transfer center Peyton Marshall, a former four-star recruit and top-100 national prospect who played sparingly in his freshman season but brings significant potential to the Yellow Jackets' roster. Returning to his home state of Georgia, Marshall is expected to receive more playing time and could form a strong frontcourt alongside Baye Ndongo. The move comes as part of a broader offseason strategy for Georgia Tech, which has also added Miami (Ohio) transfer Kam Craft and seen several players depart through the transfer portal. Marshall was highly regarded coming out of high school, leading Kell High School to a state championship and earning Class 5A player of the year honors, and he now seeks to showcase his talent in a more prominent role. The Yellow Jackets hope these additions will address key roster needs and boost the team's competitiveness in the ACC next season. Marshall's transfer follows Missouri's acquisition of another center, which limited his future opportunities with the Tigers.
