The University of Missouri men’s basketball program will get senior point guard Nick Honor back for one season of collegiate eligibility, announcing via Instagram and Twitter on Saturday night, “I’M BACK.” 

Honor, a 5’10” Orlando product, transferred to Missouri from Clemson a year ago, and went on to become one of the key pieces of the MU turnaround in 2022-2023, averaging 8 points per game, while leading the team in assists and free-throw percentage.  Honor spent three seasons at Clemson, including a redshirt season, after beginning his career at Fordham.

Former Missouri forward Ronnie DeGray III has announced a transfer to Wichita State University, officially leaving MU after two seasons, with averages of 8.3 points per game two years ago. He is the second Tiger to transfer after the season, joining Mohamed Diarra, who left for North Carolina State in late April.
