Indiana basketball has landed a key transfer commitment from Georgia Tech guard Jaeden Mustaf. The Maryland native announced his decision to join the Hoosiers on social media, bolstering Darian DeVries' backcourt rebuild for the upcoming season.

Why it matters

Indiana has been active in the transfer portal this offseason as they look to reload their roster after a disappointing season. Mustaf's addition provides the Hoosiers with a physical, experienced guard who can contribute immediately and help the team bounce back.

The details

Mustaf, a 6'4" guard, spent the last two seasons at Georgia Tech, where he averaged 9.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game. He was once a recruiting target for former Indiana coach Mike Woodson. Mustaf's decision to transfer to Indiana gives the Hoosiers a proven perimeter player who can bolster their backcourt depth and provide a physical presence on both ends of the floor.
