Mizzou basically just landed a 14th scholarship player for 2018-19
Mizzou might not have any basketball scholarships remaining for 2018-19, but Cuonzo Martin just added another piece all the same: three-star forward Parker Braun. PowerMizzou broke the story early yesterday.
Braun has committed to Missouri as a preferred walk-on for 2018. Braun’s mother, Lisa Sandbothe, is a former Miss Show-Me basketball winner and played for the Tigers from 1988-91. Lori and Mike Sandbothe, Braun’s aunt and uncle also played hoops for the Tigers.
“We were really surprised. He had a lot of great offers.” Lisa Braun said. “He is a family oriented guy and didn’t want to be far from home. He’s like ‘I want to go to Missouri.’”
