Portland transfer point guard Joel Foxwell committed to Arizona State men’s basketball on Sunday following a First Team All-WCC freshman campaign, 247 Sports’ Travis Branham first reported.
Foxwell’s 6.3 assists per game led all freshmen in the country, ranked second among underclassmen and 13th overall. He was the No. 20 point guard in the transfer portal, according to 247 Sports.
The 6-foot-1 Foxwell is the latest example of Australian players recruited by new head coach Randy Bennett and associate head coach David Patrick, the latter of whom grew up in Melbourne.
Patty Mills (Saint Mary’s 2007-09) is the biggest standout in that lineage, and wing Marcus Vaughns (LSU transfer) marked the first player in that direction in the Bennett era at ASU.

Foxwell previously grew up in Melbourne and played for Melbourne United in the NBL, appearing for a total of 36 minutes across eight games in 2024-25 with the professional club.
He added 15.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game to go with his distributing, albeit with a 31.9% 3-point shot (6.4 attempts per game) that could use some work. He had six games with double-digit assists and a standout performance with 27 points and eight assists in a win against Gonzaga.
Foxwell projects as ASU’s starting point guard and will have big shoes to fill, replacing 2025-26 standout Moe Odum, who dished out 187 assists (fourth in program history for a single season).
He joins fellow WCC addition Emmanuel Innocenti (Gonzaga), along with Vaughns and center Nate Garcia (Cal Baptist), as part of Bennett’s first transfer haul.
ASU remains in the hunt for Saint Mary’s transfer forward Paulius Murauskas (No. 9 overall in portal).
