247 Sports ranked Blackwell as the No. 1 remaining player in the transfer portal.
“Blackwell is a strong-bodied guard who made notable strides with his game in each of his three seasons at Wisconsin,” wrote 247 Sports’ Adam Finkelstein in his scouting report. “He’s not an elite athlete at the rim and can struggle to finish at times, but compensates with his overall skill and intangibles as he’s smart, competitive and tough.”
