Kane was named to the midseason Wooden Award top 25 watch list for National Player of the Year.[2] On February 13, he was named one of the 30 finalists for Naismith College Player of the Year.[3] The Sporting News named him a third team All-American.[4]

After scoring 28 points in the first game of Grindavík's first round playoff series against defending champions Tindastóll, Kane was suspended for game two by the Icelandic Basketball Association disciplinary and ruling committee. Initially suspended for two games for remarks to a referee following Grindavík's loss against Stjarnan on 28 March 2024, the case was re-evaluated after it was discovered that Grindavík had not been properly informed of the case and the suspension was eventually reduced to one game.[25] After helping Grindavík reach the Úrvalseild finals, where the team lost 2-3 to Valur, he signed a contract extension through the 2024–25 season.[26]
