Jamir Watkins tested the NBA waters and the transfer portal only to return to Florida State.
Watkins' decision to return was announced in a collaborative post on his Instagram account with the FSU men's basketball account. And it was one of the more surprising transfer transactions this offseason.
The 6-foot-7, 210-pound Watkins led FSU in scoring (15.6 points) and rebounding (6.0) and tied for the team lead in assists (2.8). He is a major returning piece for a Seminoles roster that has been overhauled in the offseason.
Watkins, Chandler Jackson, Taylor Bowen and Waka Mbatch are the only returning pieces for FSU in 2024-25.
The Seminoles have landed a number of pieces via the transfer portal, notably junior-college big man Malique Ewin.
