Former Utah guard Elijah “Choppa” Moore plans to enter the transfer portal once it officially opens on April 7th, he told On3.

The 6-foot-3 sophomore from the Bronx, New York stepped away from the Utes program in December due to personal reasons. He appeared in just one game.

Moore is a transfer from Syracuse, where he began his college career. During his freshman season with the Orange in 2024–25, Moore averaged 5.2 points per game and started 16 contests.

He was a former four-star recruit coming out of high school, ranked No. 90 overall in the 2024 class.
