Sharnecce Currie-Jelks has become the fifth Indiana Hoosier player from the women's basketball team to enter the NCAA transfer portal this off-season.

Sharnecce Currie-Jelks announced she would be transferring, via her Instagram page.

"I want to express my gratitude for the opportunities and support I have received during my time at Indiana University.

I’m so thankful for all the wonderful memories and relationships I have made here at Indiana University, from the coaching staff on down to my teammates! To the fans- Yall are amazing and couldn’t have asked for a better crowd to pack the hall and support us continuously throughout the season . It has been my please to be apart of Hoosier nation the past 2 years. With that being said I have decided to enter my name into the transfer portal and continue my journey elsewhere."

Currie-Jelks transferred to Indiana from UT-Martin, where she averaged 15.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game in almost 30 minutes per game as a freshman.

The Jackson, Tennessee native spent two seasons at Indiana but her productivity dropped off after leaving UT-Martin her freshman year. In her two seasons at Indiana, she only appeared in nine games and had a career-high of five minutes played against Eastern Illinois in the 2023-24 season. 

The 6-foot-2 forward missed all but three games of the 2023-24 season with a personal matter that was later reported as maternity absence.

Curie-Jelks will have two seasons of eligibility remaining in her college career.
