Having started all 33 games with the UCF team and averaging 18.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game while shooting a little over 42.7% from the field, he is projected as one of the top prospects in the transfer portal this season.

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
The Yellow Jackets have a rich athletic history and a strong fan base, which will offer Hall exposure. The team is also known for recruiting high-level talents, which could help Hall improve his skills.
His experience playing in high-pressure games would be an advantage to the team

The Bulldogs are known for their strong defense. While Hall is skilled, his defensive game needs improvement to become a more well-rounded player, an advantage the Bulldogs will give him. In turn, Hall’s rebounding ability will be a plus to the team.
Oregon Ducks
The Ducks struggled with rebounding and would likely be interested in Hall. He would also feel at home playing alongside the team’s strong guards.
