NCAA Men's Basketball API – Daily Transfers Endpoint

We’ve added a Daily Transfers endpoint to our NCAA Men's Basketball API to assist in tracking players' transfers to new schools.

This new endpoint provides all transactions recorded by the league on a given day, regardless of each transaction's effective date.

⭐ Benefit

You can now track when a player has officially transferred to a new school by requesting this endpoint each day during the offseason. While transfer portal moves make up the majority of activity, the feed also reports other roster transactions such as commitments, releases, and suspensions.

Visit our FAQ for a complete list of transaction codes and types.

📋 Recommended Actions

Request the Daily Transfers endpoint each day (using the year/month/day path) to capture new transactions as the league records them.
Use the transaction_code / transaction_type fields to filter for the transaction categories relevant to your application, such as transfers, commitments, or releases.
Reference the effective_date separately from the record date, since transactions appear on the day they are recorded regardless of when they take effect.
See the full list of transaction codes and types in our NCAA Men's Basketball FAQ (link above).
