Virginia Adds Versatile Guard Jan Vide

Virginia Basketball just got their biggest offseason upgrade yet: 6’6” Slovenian guard Jan Vide, a former UCLA standout turned Loyola Marymount star, is headed to Charlottesville. Averaging 12.2 points and 4 assists per game, Vide brings elite versatility — he can handle, create, and shoot — mirroring the impact of Dallin Hall. Coach Ryan Odom’s ideal player type, Vide could start or play a major role off the bench. With a core of returning stars like Thijs de Ridder and Chance Mallory, plus new transfers including Jurian Dixon and Christian Harmon, and a promising four-star center prospect Favour Ibe, Virginia’s roster is primed for a leap. After finishing as ACC runner-up last year, the Cavaliers aim to take that next step in 2026-27 — and Vide is the key piece that makes it possible.
