Roster aggregated from NCAA box scores.
88% of the previous season's points came back for 2026 — high for the division, so open scoring roles are scarce. Virginia added 8 new names to the 2026 roster. 18 of 29 players started at least one game — a rough gauge of real playing-time odds. Offense runs through a core: the top three scorers produced 53% of the team's points.
