MISSOURI STATE BEARS NEWS

Darrion Sutton - Signs with Missouri State Sutton will transfer to Missouri State, per Wyatt D. Wheeler of the Springfield News-Leader.

Impact Sutton spent his freshman year in 2024-2024 with Georgia Tech, playing in 19 games with one start. He averaged 1.3 points and 1.5 rebounds across a rotational 11.3 minutes, and elected to seek other opportunities after what was evidently a disappointing debut for the 6-foot-8 forward. Now, he'll join Missouri State with three years of eligibility remaining.
