The Illinois basketball program is getting back their star guard for one more season.
Before last season started, the Illini ended up landing a transfer in Terrence Shannon Jr. who would come in and give the program some big-time minutes. His electric play on the court was only topped by his ability to rally the team when we were down.
On April 12, Shannon decided to enter the 2023 NBA Draft. He would still keep his eligibility in case the feedback from NBA scouts wasn’t what he wanted to hear.
On Wednesday night, Shannon made the news official.
