Portal season is in full swing, and Auburn is very active in building its roster for 2026-27.
On Tuesday, Steven Pearl’s staff announced another addition. South Alabama transfer Adam Olsen has joined the Tigers.
A 6-8 forward, Olsen stands out as a scorer who is productive from beyond the arc. In 2025-26, as a junior, Olsen was a 32-game starter and made a school-record 102 3-pointers, shooting 39.1% from behind the line. He averaged 16.7 points per game and 4.1 rebounds, earning second-team All-Sun Belt honors.

— Auburn Basketball (@AuburnMBB) April 21, 2026“We’re incredibly excited to welcome Adam Olsen to our program,” Pearl said in comments released via social media. “Adam has what I’d call a super power-he’s one of the best three-point shooters in all of college basketball. If he sees it, he can make it. At 6’8” with a quick, high release, Adam will consistently get clean looks in an offense that has improved both makes and shooting percentages for our players year after year.
“Adam isn’t just one-dimensional. He’s a true three-level scorer who can knock down the mid-range shot and attack downhill, using his body to finish through contact at the rim. His ability to play multiple positions makes him a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses. Defensively, Adam is excited to show his versatility. His size and length allow him to guard multiple positions and make plays on that end of the floor.
“He’s ready to have the best summer of his career, putting in work in the weight room with Coach D and continuing to develop on the court with our staff. We can’t wait to get Adam on campus and get to work. War Eagle!”
Landing Olsen follows recent additions of Troy’s Thomas Dowd and Creighton’s Owen Freeman.
