Rojas joins fellow guards Jared Harris (Memphis),  DeMarion Dennis (Texas A&M-Corpus Christi), Adam Harakow (Lake Superior State) and Khaden Bennett (Quinnipiac), along with forward Buddy Hammer Jr. (Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College).

Rojas, a former standout at Los Osos High School, averaged 25.5 points per game and connected on nearly 46% of his shots from the floor last season. He also added 7.7 rebounds and almost five assists per outing.

He shot nearly 39% from beyond the arc, sinking 75-of-195 triples. Rojas netted 790 points last season and poured in 1,161 during his two-year stint at the southern California community college.

In a January win over Victor Valley, Rojas netted a career-high 54 points on 17-of-29 shooting. He stroked six threes and made 14 free throws.

Rojas eclipsed the 40-point mark Twice last winter. Four times he scored at least 30. Twenty-four times he reached 20.

Rojas started 29 of the Panthers' 31 games last season, averaging more than 26 minutes a night. He dished out 151 helpers compared to just 55 total turnovers. He also snagged 42 steals and blocked 18 shots.

Wyoming head coach Sundance Wicks announced on social media Wednesday that "Portal Combat" has been completed, referring to filling out the 2025-26 roster. It is believed that he has two more players who have yet to publicly announce their decision.

Six Cowboys have entered the NCAA Transfer Portal since the spring window opened on March 24, including guards Obi Agbim (Baylor), Nigle Cook, Levi Brown and AJ Wills (Hofstra).

Big men Scottie Ebube and Oleg Kojenets (Stony Brook) are also on the open market.

Only two scholarship players remain -- forwards Matija Belic and Abou Magassa -- and Wicks and Co. have added three high school prospects: Forwards Gavin Gores (6'10", 210, Cumberland, Wisconsin) and Neil Summers (6'9", 240, Laramie, Wyo.) and guard Nasir Meyer (6'7", 185, Los Angeles, Calif.).

Freshman walk-on Garrett Spielman of Sheridan is also currently on the roster.

Though the current portal window closed April 22, players who have entered the free-agent market can still sign at any time.
