Overview
- Stewart, who decided to transfer Friday, entered the NCAA portal after three seasons at UConn and has one year of eligibility left.
- He arrived as a four-star recruit from Seattle’s Garfield High and averaged 4.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.1 assists this season.
- He missed eight games with a knee injury, sat the first weekend of the NCAA tournament, then logged key minutes late, including three points in seven minutes in the Final Four win over Illinois.
- He made multiple starts this year but spent most nights as a rotation wing, and Yahoo Sports reports he is likely seeking a larger role with steadier minutes.
- His departure comes as UConn reshapes the roster, with center Eric Reibe also in the portal and Seton Hall transfer Najai Hines committing to the Huskies.
