Finally! Some good news!
After three weeks of nothing but bad news for Colorado’s men’s hoops program, we’ve finally got our first nugget of hope. The Buffaloes have landed their first transfer for the 2024-25 campaign, being former Colorado Mesa forward Trevor Baskin.
Baskin was widely regarded as perhaps the best Division II player in the nation last year. The Colorado native has been playing for the CMU Mavericks for the last four seasons, averaging an impressive 18.2 points and 8.3 rebounds per game in 2023-24. He’ll be using his one year of extra eligibility to play in Boulder with the Buffaloes.
Colorado’s new forward is very long and a freak athlete, as his 6-foot-9 frame makes him a very intriguing player. Despite his size, Baskin is extremely agile and can shoot the ball well, as he shot 57.5% from the field and 36.5% from deep last season.
Baskin has the unique opportunity to play right away in Boulder, as both of Colorado’s starting forwards from last year will be entering the upcoming NBA Draft. Paired with Bangot Dak, the Buffs may have one hell of a front court next year.
Start familiarizing yourself with the name Trevor Baskin, as he’s poised to be one of Colorado’s biggest contributors heading into the Big XII.
Welcome to Boulder, Trevor!
