Xavier Musketeers land Indiana transfer Jerome Hunter

Xavier University's men's basketball team picked up a second offseason transfer Sunday from the Big Ten Conference.

Redshirt junior Jerome Hunter, a 6-foot-7 forward from Indiana University, will join the Musketeers, he announced on Twitter.

Hunter, who's from Pickerington, Ohio, was a medical redshirt as a freshman in 2018-19, then played in 30 games in the 2019-20 season and averaged 3.8 points and 2.1 rebounds.

Hunter played in 25 games last season and averaged 6.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, and shot 25 of 73 from 3-point range.

Hunter, who entered the transfer portal six days ago, is Xavier's second Big Ten transfer since the end of last season, joining Iowa big man Jack Nunge.
