NORMAL – The Illinois State basketball team’s addition of Boden Skunberg became official Thursday as Skunberg’s scholarship agreement was received.
A transfer from North Dakota State, Skunberg has one season of eligibility remaining.
Boden Skunberg (14) is transferring from North Dakota State to join the Illinois State basketball team.
“We are really excited about the addition of Boden Skunberg,” said ISU coach Ryan Pedon. “Having played against him this past season we were very familiar with his game and had great admiration from afar.
“We believe he is an elite competitor that will bring us a mixture of size, skill, and an ability to shoot the basketball.”
Skunberg led the Bison in scoring (14.1) and rebounding (5.4) last season.
