Report: Bryce Aiken to become graduate transfer

Bryce Aiken will pursue graduate transfer opportunities, 247Sports reported Saturday.

The news is no shock but indicates that Aiken is looking to use what is left of his college eligibility rather than starting a professional career.

Aiken played only seven games this season due to a foot injury that happened on Dec. 21, missing the final 18 games of the regular season. Aiken is expected to get a medical redshirt for this past season and will graduate from Harvard in the spring, according to 247Sports.

The Ivy League does not grants redshirts or allow graduate students to play athletics.

Aiken averaged 16.8 points, 2.7 assists and 2.4 rebounds per game in 65 career contests for the Crimson, establishing himself as one of the league’s most dynamic scorers when healthy. Aiken missed 31 games his sophomore and junior seasons due to injury.
