Croatian forward Boris Tisma will no longer play for the Washington Huskies in the 2026-27 season. He has signed a two-year contract with Movistar Estudiantes, a professional team in Madrid. Tisma's departure follows changes to NCAA eligibility rules regarding international players with prior professional contracts, although it's unclear if this was the reason for his move. Washington coach Danny Sprinkle's roster now has a gap to fill in the post as the team prepares for a preseason exhibition against Boise State on October 17.
