Former Duke forward Joey Baker will transfer to Michigan for his fifth and final year of eligibility, per Sports Illustrated’s Jason Jordan. Baker retweeted Jordan’s message, appearing to confirm the news.
As Jordan notes, Baker ultimately chose to transfer to Michigan after meeting with coach Juwan Howard and after the team’s Sweet 16 run in the NCAA tournament back in March. The forward felt like Michigan “provided the best opportunity to make an impact on a championship caliber team.”
