Gophers' Parker Fox returning for 2024-25 season
The forward is using his last season of eligibility.
Parker Fox is back for another year.
The Gophers men’s basketball team announced Friday that the forward will use his final year of eligibility for the 2024-25 season. Fox was a spark plug off the bench for the Gophers last season, playing in every game, and will likely be a valuable piece of the rotation in 2024-25.
Fox transferred to the U from Division II Northern State but suffered back-to-back ACL tears, sidelining him for his first two seasons at Minnesota. But he returned this season and averaged 5.1 points and 2.9 rebounds per game, often providing a needed spark off the bench.
Fox saw more action as the season went on and scored in double digits seven times. With Pharrel Payne, Josh Ola-Joseph, Braeden Carrington and Isaiah Ihnen all leaving via the transfer portal, Fox’s return will be important for a Gophers team looking to build off its progress from last season.
