Ohio State Bolsters Frontcourt with High-Potential Transfers
In a move to strengthen its frontcourt, Ohio State has added two high-profile transfers to its roster: former Duke forward Sean Stewart and former Kentucky center Aaron Bradshaw. Both players, who were McDonald’s All-Americans in their respective high school classes, bring a high level of potential to the Buckeyes’ lineup.
Stewart’s Promising Start
Stewart, who is ranked No. 76 in the CBS Sports Transfer Rankings, had a promising start to his college career at Duke. Despite limited playing time due to a crowded frontcourt featuring Kyle Filipowski, Mark Mitchell, and Ryan Young, his splits were encouraging, showcasing his athleticism in his brief spurts of action. With the arrival of No. 1 overall prospect Cooper Flagg, Stewart decided to enter the transfer portal during an offseason of significant roster changes for the Blue Devils.
Bradshaw’s McDonald’s Pedigree
Bradshaw, another McDonald’s All-American, was a promising center for Kentucky. Although his college career has yet to fully unfold, his pedigree and potential make him a valuable addition to the Buckeyes’ roster. Both Stewart and Bradshaw are young and relatively unproven, having played reserve roles for blue-blood programs during the 2023-24 season. However, their high-upside potential and unique skill sets make them an intriguing tandem in the frontcourt.
A Critical Addition for Diebler
The addition of Stewart and Bradshaw is particularly critical for Ohio State head coach Jake Diebler, who has had to contend with the transfers of experienced bigs Zed Key (Dayton) and Felix Okpara (Tennessee). These new additions will help fill the void left by the departing players and provide a fresh infusion of talent into the Buckeyes’ frontcourt.
As Ohio State prepares for the upcoming season, the impact of these two high-profile transfers will be closely watched. While Stewart and Bradshaw are still developing their college game, their potential to contribute to the team’s success is undeniable. As they continue to grow and adapt to their new environment, the Buckeyes will benefit from their high-upside play in the frontcourt.
